Easy Keto Homemade Tomato Sauce Food

KETO TOMATO SAUCE (MARINARA)

Steps:

• Slice garlic and place into pot with olive oil. Turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally until slightly softened and the oil is flavored.
• Meanwhile, open the tomato cans and pour the tomatoes into a blender or food processor and pulse to break-up the tomatoes. Pulse more for a smooth sauce and less for a chunky sauce.
• Pour the processed tomatoes into the pot with the garlic and add the half onion, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, sweetener, and half a can of water.
• Simmer for 1 hour. Then add the fresh basil, parsley, and Parmesan cheese. Simmer for 30-60 minutes more or until it's as thick as you like. (You can tell it's thickening because the consistency will look a little syrupy when the bubbles break upon the surface. Remember that the sauce will thicken further upon cooling and refrigeration.)
• Remove the onion, and sprigs of fresh basil and parsley before serving or cooling and storing.
• Makes 2 quarts or 8 cups. Serves 16. Each serving is 1/2 cup and 3.5 g NET CARBS each.
