The ingredients for Grandma Montella's Zucchini Sauce are:

28-oz can of tomato puree
2 6-oz cans of plain tomato paste, no salt added
small to medium onion, chopped
oregano (maybe a generous Tbsp - to taste)
12-15 leaves basil, fresh or dried, to taste
Tbsp fennel seed, to taste
1 tsp minced garlic
Tbsp olive oil
4 small zucchini (small ones are more tender and don't take as long to cook)
bell pepper, optional

Here is how you make Grandma Montella's Zucchini Sauce:

If you're using bell pepper, chop it and saute in olive oil. When it starts to get soft, add onion. Add fennel and garlic after a minute. When the onion's soft, add tomato puree, paste and herbs. Don't add salt; it's bad for you. Let simmer for 45 minutes while you slice the zucchini, leaving the skin on (they hold together better). Toss the slices in the sauce and let cook until soft. Makes about 48 ounces (nutritional info is per ounce of sauce). You can freeze it -- zucchini will get mushy, but it won't hurt the taste.Number of Servings: 48Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ELENASAN.
