Pasta Sauce



 I made my own pasta sauce instead of buying my regular store brand in an effort to cut excess sodium from our diet.  I used this recipe, albeit using a can of crushed tomatoes.  It is quite flavourful and hopefully I can continue to do this.  It was good with pasta and a bit of parmesan cheese as shown above.

I added some ground beef and pork to the sauce as pictured below, it was good sprinkled with a bit of parmesan cheese.



The next step may be to use actual fresh tomatoes in the summer!

As a postscript to this post I found a supermarket sauce with less sodium and it is quite delicious so after all that I have to go with what the everyone else seems to eat!

It's always great to make your own so you know exactly what's in it. Love to make my own sauce, but I seldom do. Thanks so much!
