  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the chopped vegetables, 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 cup vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 40-45 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or herbs to your preference.
  5. Serve the sauce over your favorite cooked pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley or Parmesan cheese (optional).
