Acadia's Marinara Sauce

This is my version of marinara sauce for pasta! Yummy! i omit the salt as i use canned crushed tomatoes which i find for us to have enough salt. However, if you use fresh tomatoes i would add the salt for your taste. Enjoy!!

Steps

In a 3 quart dutch oven add the olive oil and onions.
Saute on medium low until tender about 4 minutes stirring frequently.
Add garlic and saute for an additional 1 minute stirring frequently.
Slice up bell peppers , add to mixture and saute an additional 4 minutes stirring frequently.
Add sherry.
Add basil , oregano , parsley , italian seasoning and mix with other ingredients.

Place pureed mixture back into dutch oven.
Add crushed tomatoes and bay leaf.
Add salt.
Bring to a low boil stirring frequently , then reduce to simmer.
Cover and cook for 45 min on low / simmer , stirring every 5 minutes.
