I've always thought that making a tomato sauce or marinara sauce would be difficult! Thankfully, this recipe could not be easier! It's so easy to make, just throw everything in and ENJOY! Best of all, it's delicious! It tastes like it's been simmering on the stove all day, when it's only simmers for 20-25 minutes!

The ingredients you will need are honestly things you should have in your pantry already! You will need: olive oil, 2 large cans of crushed tomatoes (or diced tomatoes if you're me), minced garlic, salt, pepper, dried basil and dried oregano.

Start by heating olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat.

Add in your garlic, my theory on garlic is: the more, the merrier!

I like to add a little water to the can to get the leftover bits out. I would say no more than 1/4 cup of water.

Because I only had diced tomatoes for my second can of tomatoes, I added in a 1 tbsp of tomato paste to thicken it up a bit.

Don't forget your seasoning! Add in salt and....
