Three-Ingredient Marinara
Ingredients:
1 can (28 ounces) whole peeled tomatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper
Directions:
In a food processor or blender, puree tomatoes until smooth. In a straight-sided skillet or small pan, heat oil over medium. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add pureed tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 15 minutes.

Notes: This was so quick and easy to make.You can add a teaspoon of Italian seasoning if you want, but it isn't necessary. This is my favorite comfort food. I could eat spaghetti and marinara forever! So, so good!
Oh, and recipes never count salt, pepper, or things like water as an ingredient...so I realize that there are four lines of ingredients, but you get the idea. :) You can also top this with Parmesan cheese, if you like. You can also a little more flavor by adding 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Italian seasoning, dried basil, or dried oregano.
This does look good and easy. And who can't keep that stuff on hand for a quick week-night feast?
