Homemade Spaghetti Sauce

Ingredients:

1 large can crushed tomatoes
1 large can tomato puree
1 can of tomato paste
1 medium onion - diced
1lb medium/hot sausage
garlic
EVOO
salt
pepper
Italian Seasoning
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup sugar

In a large pan heat EVOO. Add garlic and onion and cook for about 2 minutes on medium heat.

Add sausage, pepper, a dash of salt and Italian Seasoning and cook through. Drain and set aside.

In crockpot add tomatoes, bay leaves and sugar. Add spices to taste.

Stir in sausage mixture.

Cook on low for 4 - 6 hours, stirring occassionally.

*Note - a trick I learned to stop sauce ring around your crockpot - before adding ingredients spray with non-stick spray. Works like a charm!
