Makes a tangy, tasty, and thick sauce!January 13, 2008By irishdaze
"NOTE: The recipe calls for a TOTAL of 28 oz of crushed tomatoes and a TOTAL of 28 oz of tomato puree. I read it wrong the first time, and I bought waaay too much of both the crushed and puree. :-) Also, after I made it the first time, I later swapped out red wine for the water. I also added 1 large julienned zucchini, 4 oz of fresh white julienned mushrooms, and 1/2 lb of thoroughly cooked and drained mild Italian sausage crumbles to the Crock. These little changes just add a bit of variety to it, but the sauce recipe as written makes a good basic sauce to be tinkered with forever."
