Quick and Easy Pasta Sauce:
This easy to make sauce is so tasty and versatile. You can substitute crushed or whole tomatoes for the diced. Crushed will give you a smooth, thick sauce; whole adds a nice chunkiness.

1c chopped onion
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2c dry red wine or 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp chopped fresh or 2 tsps dried basil
2 tbsp tomato paste
1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
1
/4 tsp black pepper
2 (14.5 oz) cans diced tomatoes, undrained
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley.
Heat olive oil in a saucepan or large skillet over medium high heat. Add onion and garlic; saute 5 minutes. Stir in wine and next 6 ingredients (through tomatoes); bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and cook uncovered about 15 minutes. Stir n parsley. Yield: 3c (serving size: 3/4c)
Enjoy...Nora
