This sauce is used in many recipes. One cup is equal to 2 points plus. This is the same sauce used on the chicken parmigiana burgers I also posted.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2-28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
3 clove garlic, smashed
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 large onion finely chopped
1 c carrots, finely chopped
1/2 c fat free chicken stock
fresh basil

Steps:

  • 1. Saute garlic in oil, add onions and carrots and saute on medium-low for about 2-3 minutes, until soft. Add tomatoes and chicken broth and simmer 45 minutes on low.
  • 2. Add fresh basil last 10 minutes (herbs will become bitter if cooked more than 20 minutes). Julia always adds herbs into the sauce near the end.
  • 3. Taste for acidity, if sauce is a bit tangy (acidic) then add 1 tbsp of sugar. For a calorie free way to cut the acidity in the sauce add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
