3/4 cup chopped onions

5 garlic cloves, minced

2 - 28 ounce cans crushed tomatoes

2 teaspoons coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce or tamari

1 teaspoon maple syrup

1 bay leaf

1 6 ounce can tomato paste

3/4 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

a few grindings of black pepper

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Instructions

1. In a large skillet or saucepan, saute onions and garlic until transparent.

2. Add remaining ingredients through black pepper, over medium-high heat bring to a slow simmer. Cover and reduce heat to low and simmer for 90 minutes stirring every 15 minutes.
