Add chopped tomato, diced tomatoes, salt, if desired, thyme, basil, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes and brown sugar. Stir to combine. Increase heat; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Blend sauce with immersion blender (or regular blender). Return sauce to saucepan; bring to simmer. Add Parmesan cheese; simmer 5 minutes.

Notes

For spicier sauce, add additional crushed red pepper flakes, as desired. If desired, two cups prepared marinara sauce can be substituted for the homemade sauce.
