I know that it is so easy to just open up a can of sauce and viola you are done. I find it just as easy but way more delicious to make your own sauce. With this simple sauce recipe that I use myself it will surely be a hit in your home.
Ingredients:
2 large cans diced tomatoes
2 large cans crushed tomatoes
1 cup dry red wine (optional)
3 TBSPS fresh basil ( if you use dry cut back on this for it is way more powerful the fresh)
3 TBSPS fresh oregano (again if you use dry use less)
salt pepper to taste
1-2 TBSP sugar (varies on the totamto)
4 cloves of garlic finely chopped
1 large onion finely chopped
4 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
2 TBSP crushed red pepper flakes
a pinch of cinnamon
1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup Ramano cheese
1/2 cup asiago cheese
Directions:
In a large stock pot sweat onions in 2 TBSP olive oil. add garlic, tomatoes and 2 more table spoons of olive oil. Add basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, cinnamon, sugar, and salt and pepper. And simmer for 2-4 hours the longer you cook it the better it tastes. Add more basil or oregano if needed. Don't be afraid to add more.
**** I generally get 3 to 4 meals from this recipe****
