Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, chopped finely
  • 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 28 – 32 oz can of crushed or pureed tomatoes
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 2-3 cups of skim or low fat milk

Preparation

Step 1

1. Saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil until it is translucent.

2. Add the tomatoes, baking soda, parsley and salt and pepper.

3. Bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes over medium low heat.

4. Add the honey and basil. Check and add more salt and pepper as needed.

I usually only add a cup to a cup and a half of milk since I like the consistency to be a bit thicker.
