canned tomatoes

🥗Healthier: fresh tomatoes

💰Cheaper: crushed tomatoes

Fresh tomatoes are more nutritious, and crushed tomatoes are often cheaper.

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium or large pan over 70% power.

Add 2 chopped onions and 5 minced garlic cloves; stir occasionally for about 15 minutes until they turn golden-brown.

If unsure if the oil is hot, sprinkle some water on it to check for sizzling.

Once the onions and garlic are caramelized, remove them from heat.

Prepare a heat-resistant area with a heat-resistant bowl.

In the bowl or a food processor, add 60 ounces of canned diced tomatoes first, followed by 1 small can of tomato paste.

Add 1 teaspoon each of dried basil, rosemary, thyme, and oregano, along with 1 teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of ground black pepper.

Finally, add the caramelized onion and garlic mixture to the bowl or food processor.

Blend everything together until there are no large chunks or clumps.

Transfer the blended mixture back into the onion pan and heat until it starts steaming and bubbling, about 15 minutes, stirring every five minutes.
