CHUNKY GARDEN VEGETABLE SPAGHETTI SAUCE



Chunky Garden Vegetable Spaghetti Sauce image

Provided by A Kitchen Addiction

Categories     Condiments

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 Cup olive oil
1 Cup onion, coarsely chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 Cup carrots, coarsely chopped
1 Cup green pepper, coarsely chopped
1 Cup yellow summer squash, finely sliced and quartered
10 Cups tomatoes, washed and cut into chunks
1 Tablespoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan or medium stock pot, heat olive oil over medium heat for two minutes. Add in the onion, garlic, carrots, green pepper, and summer squash. Cook until onions turn translucent and vegetables start to soften, about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Increase temperature to medium-high. Add tomatoes and spices. Stir to combine. Bring mixture to a boil stirring occasionally. When sauce reaches a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and allow to simmer for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. The longer you let it simmer the fewer chunks there will be. Stir occasionally to prevent any sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Use sauce immediately or allow to cool completely before transferring sauce to freezer safe containers. Keep a container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks if you want to use the sauce shortly. Store the rest in the freezer.
