Tomato Cream Sauce [recipes]


I recently posted a couple photos of my signature tomato cream sauce, and was asked to write out the recipe, so here it is!
Tomato Cream Sauce

1 garlic clove, chopped
½ onion, chopped
1 tomato, chopped (optional)
½ cup heavy whipping cream
1 8 oz can tomato sauce
½ cup fresh parmesan cheese
basil, chopped (or parsley)(optional)
salt and pepper (to taste)
olive oil (or butter)

Saute garlic, onion, and basil in olive oil in medium saucepan until onions and garlic are nearly done. Add can of tomato sauce, let simmer for 5 minutes. Add heavy cream, integrate thoroughly into tomato sauce mixture. Add fresh diced tomatoes now if desired.


Stir in handfuls of parmesan cheese, integrating fully with the sauce before adding more. Add salt and pepper to taste. Spinach also can be added to make a more hearty sauce.


Enjoy!
