Then I just hit 'em with the stick blender and turned into sauce. Brought to a boil on the stove with a couple tablespoons of Italian seasoning, tablespoon or so of garlic powder, half Tbs of oregano, and couple teaspoons of salt. After boiling, took down to low and let simmer covered for about an hour and a half to two hours, uncovered for about the last half hour to try and thicken up a little more at the end.

Cook up a little spaghetti, brown a batch of Italian sausage, and make up some garlic toast. Thought I had a bag salad in the fridge, but apparently forgot to pick one up at the store so unfortunately no greens.
