Marinara Sauce:

1-(28-oz.)-Can Whole Peeled Tomatoes

3 T. Extra-Virgin Olive Oil

1 Clove Garlic, Finely Chopped

1 Bay Leaf

1/2 Small Onion, Finely Chopped

1/2 Tsp. Basil Or Oregano-Prefer Basil

1/4 Tsp. Dried Thyme

Put tomatoes and their liquid into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped; set aside.

Heat oil in a 4-qt. saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, bay leaf, and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes along with the basil and thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and its flavors come together, about 20 minutes. Stir in parsley and season with salt and pepper.
