Sara's Own Basil-Tomato Sauce
In a cast iron pan, sauté onion slowly until translucent. Add tomatoes and bouillon and simmer ¼ of the mix away. Add all the fresh herbs and garlic and simmer 20 to 30 minutes more. Add tomato paste if thicker sauce is desired. Tastes best if allowed to sit in the fridge overnight. Freezes very well.
