The perfect sauce to compliment our Herb and Parmesan Meatballs!
Cover the bottom of a large soup pan with oil. Turn heat to medium and add onions and garlic. Cook until translucent. Add tomatoes, basil, and bay leaves and let simmer for 20-30 minutes. Add butter and mix until incorporated. Add salt and pepper to taste. If sauce is too acidic add sugar one tablespoon at a time until desired taste is reached.
