Marinara Sauce With Meat

I am going to put this one up as well, from another blog of mine, since the original has now dissappeared.

Marinara Sauce With Meat

This all-purpose Italian-style tomato sauce can be used over pasta, in lasagna, on pizza, or with baked chicken.

Makes 8-10 servings

Ingredients

  • 4 strips Bacon
  • 1 medium Onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic, minced
  • 4 cups crushed (or ground) Pear Tomatoes
  • 1 ½ tablespoons Basil
  • 2 teaspoons Oregano
  • ¼ cup Red Wine (optional)

Directions

Render the fat from the bacon in a medium saucepan over low heat. Remove the bacon strips. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft, but do not brown. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer over a low heat for about two hours. Stir often to prevent scorching.
