Ingredients

  • 1 (28 oz.) can of Pastene ground peeled tomatoes
  • 1 (26 oz.) jar of Nature's Promise Organic Garden

  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper

  • 2 cups chopped sweet onions
  • 3 tbsp. butter
  • 1 tsp. sea salt

Instructions

  • Chop the onions into 1/2" squares.
  • In a large fry pan, caramelize the onions in 2 tbsp. of butter. First start with high heat for 5 minutes. Stirring to ensure they don't get burned. Then turn it down to medium-low and stir every couple of minutes for 20 minutes or so (until the they are glossy, honey brownish color). About halfway thru, stir in a tsp. of sea salt.
  • In a large stock pot, empty the jar of pasta sauce and then fill the jar to the top with cold water, cap, and shake well. We got to make sure we get all that goodness! Open the cap and pour the water in the pot
  • Next, empty the Pastene can into the pot. Fill that can with cold water, about halfway. Be sure to get all the goodness on the sides! Empty the can of water into the pot.
  • Now add the sea salt, pepper, garlic powder, sugar and the caramelized onions to the pot and stir well. Bring the pot of sauce to a boil and then turn to low. Simmer for about one and half hours.
