1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
1 28 oz whole, peeled tomatoes
`3 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp good quality olive oil
1 large red onion, chopped
1 tbsp dried basil
1 tbsp dried oregano
2 tsp salt
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

2 tbsp fresh minced parsley
1/2 tsp thyme
2 bay leaves

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot, on medium heat. Add onions and garlic and saute until they become translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minutes.
Add in tomato puree and whole tomatoes. Using the back of a spoon or a potato masher, lightly mash the mixture to break up the whole tomatoes, leaving some pieces.
Add in sugar, salt, basil, thyme, oregano and bay leaves. Stir in water. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, to prevent sticking.
Take off heat and stir in parsley and chia seeds.
