INGREDIENTS

• 1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
• 1 onion, peeled and diced
  or 1/2 cup frozen chopped onions
• 2 garlic cloves, chopped fine
  or 1 Tablespoon jarred minced garlic
• 1/2 cup diced mushrooms
• 1/2 diced red peppers
• 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
• 1 Teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 Tablespoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon of Nutritional yeast, if desired, can be added for a cheesy flavor

PREPARATION

Place diced onions, peppers and garlic in a medium saucepan and cook on medium for 1-2 minutes.

Once they start to get soft and a bit dry, add the mushrooms, stirring occasionally.

Once cooked through, add in the can of crushed tomatoes, or if you prefer a chunkier sauce, use whole peeled tomatoes.

Add in seasonings.

Stir to mix completely, then cook covered for at least 15 minutes on low.

The longer you cook, the richer the flavors will become.
