10-15 Minute Homemade Spaghetti Sauce

I just made this one day. Started throwing stuff in my Bullet blender and "voila" a good sauce....and quick too. Note: I used a Magic Bullet Blender to make this. I'm not sure how conventional blenders would do with veggies but they could be hand chopped, it will add to total time though.

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 1-2

Ingredients

• 2  large tomatoes (frozen and very big)
• 1  garlic clove
• 1⁄2 stalk celery
• 3  mushrooms
• 1⁄4  red pepper
• 1⁄4 onion
• 2  teaspoons dried parsley
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1  teaspoon dried basil
• 2  teaspoons sugar (optional)
•  salt and pepper
•  pepper

Directions

1. Note: it was easier to "render" the tomatoes when they were frozen. As they melt the water melts before the flesh so you are able to pour off the water.
2. Thaw tomatoes in microwave at 5 minute intervals on high pouring off water as it melts until there is barely any water remaining. (Bullet users: use vent lid to mic. and strain!).
3. Chop garlic, celery, onion, mushrooms, and red pepper finely.
4. Just cover with water and microwave on high till veggies are tender 5-8 minutes.
5. Drain.
6. Combine melted, strained tomatoes, cooked veggies, spices, sugar(to control tartness), and salt and pepper to taste.
7. Blend to desired consistency and heat in microwave on high for 5 minutes. Careful it will be hot! Use oven mitts.
8. Taste for spices and adjust accordingly.
9. Serve over hot cooked noodles.
