ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, extra virgin preferred
- 4 minced garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons dried parsley

- 1 teaspoon basil
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 dash red pepper (I never use it) (optional)
- 2 (28 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes
- 2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
directions
- Before starting this recipe, measure out all the spices and sugar into a small prep bowl. Mince the garlic or you can use the pre chopped jar garlic.
- In a large deep skillet, (I use my large electric skillet) heat olive oil and saute garlic for about 3 minutes until golden, watch carefully so it doesn't get over brown. Remove from heat and add the cans of tomato sauce and paste. Mix well and then stir in all of the spices and sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer about 30 minutes or until heated thru. Fantastic and basically fat free! Serve over your choice of pasta noodle and enjoy!

Married for 33 years. We have two boys, ages 23 and 14. Life is never dull!! I love to cook and share recipe's. Our oldest son has severe food allergies so I have learned to be very creative turning our family favorites into recipe's that he can also enjoy. I gathered our family's recipe's and did our own family cookbook and am planning to do another one soon.
I guess my only pet peeve would be uninformed people that don't realize that food allergies are life threatening.
