Chunky Tomato Mushroom Sauce image

This recipe is good year round, but is especially good when you can use fresh from the garden cherry tomatoes. It is based on a recipe that comes from A CELEBRATION OF WELLNESS cookbook.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb mushrooms, quartered
1 medium onion, diced
5 clove garlic, sliced
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp braggs liquid aminos (you can substitute soy sauce for this)
1 lb cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 c water
salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp dried oregano
OPTIONAL
1/4 c water
1 Tbsp corn starch

Steps:

  • 1. Saute garlic and onion in oil and aminos for 5 minutes over medium low heat.
  • 2. Add mushrooms and saute until mushrooms are done and onions are tender.
  • 3. Add cherry tomatoes, oregano, salt and pepper and simmer until tomatoes are softened and give up their juice - about 10 minutes or so. Depending on how juicy the tomatoes are, you may need to add a little water.
  • 4. If the tomatoes are real juicy and a thicker sauce is desired, combine 1/4 c water and cornstarch. Slowly add half to sauce, bring to a boil. Add more if needed.
  • 5. Serve over pasta.
