ingredients

1 small onion
2 garlic cloves
olive oil
red pepper flakes
black pepper
italian seasoning (mix of oregano, basil, parsley)
1 (28 ounce) can tomato sauce
14 ounces water
1 (8 ounce) package frozen peas
1 lb macaroni

directions

Saute onions in olive oil. When onions are soft, saute garlic quickly.
Add tomato sauce and 1/2 can water.
Add seasonings to your taste. (I prefer a lot of red pepper to make the sauce hot).
Simmer covered for about 45 minutes. Add peas during last 20 minutes of cooking.
Prepare macaroni (elbows or small shells) as directed on box.
Serve in a big bowl with lots of sauce. I prefer it as a soupy pasta. Add grated cheese. Delicious with bread and a glass of wine.
