The ingredients for Crock Pot Pasta Sauce are:

12 oz can tomato paste
12 oz water
1/2 cup fresh diced tomato
1/2 cup chopped onions
1 large or 2 small bay leaves
Seasonings to be done to taste-measurements shown are approximations of what I used...I am horrible at thinking to measure stuff like this!
4 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dry minced garlic (can use fresh, I or in water type, I was out)
4 tsp sugar

Here is how you make Crock Pot Pasta Sauce:

Put all ingredients in crock pot, stir well. cook on low all day (about 8 hours) or on high 3-4 hours. Or, cook on low for a few hours and kick up to high for the last hour. the longer it cooks the better the flavor, but it can be cooked in less time. I usually add a meat, so I cook longer for that purpose. You can add turkey Italian sausage (raw or precooked), ground turkey, or other meat of your choice. I usually use a turkey or chicken product just because there is less fat to skim off the top when done. My husband also likes to put whole boiled eggs in the sauce to soak up the flavor and be eaten on the side. I haven't tried it yet...it's cooking now! It was something his friend's full Italian father used to do and he loved it!Serving Size: Approx 16, 1/2 cup servingsNumber of Servings: 16Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user RMENTEER.
