Troy Sorbello’s Dad’s Spaghetti Sauce
Julie - Troy Sorbello was Julie’s housemate when she was in grad school.

Ed. note: I know this doesn't have meat in it but I didn't know where else to put it.

12 oz. can tomato paste
½ cup olive oil (paste absorbs oil)
1 clove garlic
1 medium onion chopped small
1 t. salt (Julie adds less)

 1 t. basil
1 cup parsley, minced
½ t. oregano
1 T sugar
½ bay leaf

Add 3 to 4 paste cans of water and cook for 3-4 hours, until oil pools on top. (Oil seems to be on top from the beginning, but that’s what the recipe says.) 

This is particularly delicious on fresh pasta.
