Fantastic sauce! I substituted diced tomatoes for the whole tomatoes and italian seasoning for the basil. I completely drained both types of tomatoes and cooked a little longer than 20 minutes just to thicken a little more. Served over cheese ravioli.

I loved this. I used 2 cans of crushed tomatoes instead of the whole tomatoes since my dh likes a smother sauce and I would have had to blend it up anyway. Anyone who thinks this is bland or lacks flavor is probably not looking for a marinara sauce but rather a spaghetti sauce.

Will never buy canned/jarred sauce again. Easy, cheap, and tasty.

I can't believe something this simple is so good! I didn't have crushed tomatoes on hand, so I used one can of tomato sauce but didn't change anything else. We all loved this with meatballs and pasta.

Very simple to make - instead of two cans of tomatoes, I used a can of petite diced and three small tomatoes. After sautéing the onion and garlic and mixing the ingredients in the pan, I felt that the sauce was very chunky, so I blended it in the Magic Bullet. It worked like a charm and the sauce is delicious.

Great sauce! Instead of adding the whole peeled tomatoes, I used a 14.5 oz. can of petite diced toamtoes and since I like thing a little thicker I added a 6 oz. can of tomato paste. I also added a couple splashes of wine, 1 tsp. of oregano, and 1 Tbsp. of brown sugar to cut the acidity of the tomatoes vs. white sugar. Other than those additions this was perfect over angel hair pasta!
