How to Make Thick Chunky Tomato Sauce With Veggies Crock Pot
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, deep pot over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 carrots (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained, 1 cup mushrooms (sliced), and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Sauté until vegetables are almost tender, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large slow cooker (6-quart or larger). Add 2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Cook on high for 5-6 hours, stirring occasionally. If the sauce starts to stick to the bottom, reduce to low heat.
- For the best flavor, stir in 1/4 cup fresh basil and 1/4 cup fresh parsley during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- If you are unable to stir frequently, cook on low for 8-10 hours until the desired thickness is reached.
