Tomato/Spaghetti Sauce

So this is my first time making a homemade tomato sauce so if you have any suggestions on how to make it better please let me know!

Ingredients:

7-8 Roma Tomatoes, depending on the size, sliced

1 med. white onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

1 tsp Italian Seasoning

pinch red pepper flakes

1 bay leaf (2 if they are small)

1 (14oz) can low-sodium chicken broth

1 (6oz) can tomato paste

salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

In a large pot saute garlic and onion in EVOO until translucent. Add tomatoes and cook for about 5 mins, until you can cut tomatoes with spatula. Add chicken broth and tomato paste and simmer on med-low heat for a couple minutes. With a hand blender, blend and pulse until pureed or until desired consistency. Add red pepper flakes, Italian Seasoning, and bay leaves. Cover and bring back to simmer over med-low heat, simmer for about 30 mins. Simmer uncovered until thickness desired is reached.

Serve or freeze!
