Then put the chopped garlic in the pan to let garlic release its flavor.
Place tomatoes gently in the pan with the bottom facing down – ! important this is how we harness all the delicious juice released from the tomatoes. Note: If you don’t have fresh basil you could also use dried basil flakes which could achieve pretty amazing result as well.

Step 5. Ingredients in & Mix up!After 3-5 minutes of low heat, put in the chopped mushrooms as well as bacon and let them sit in for additional 3 -5 minutes. Since we are adding those naturally flavored bacon back into the tomato sauce, there is no need for addition seasoning to the sauce.
