Ingredients

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then simmer over medium-low heat for 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • Pour over cooked pasta and top with Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Notes

  • For a meaty sauce, add 1 pound of ground beef, turkey or sausage. If you go this route, cook the meat in a skillet first and drain grease. Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet and cook as directed.
  • Spruce up the sauce by using any or all of the following: red pepper flakes, fresh tomatoes or diced tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, olive oil, fresh basil or dried basil, grated Parmesan, a few minced garlic cloves or fresh chopped onions.
  • Add sugar 1 teaspoon at a time for a sweeter sauce.
  • Store leftovers in an air-tight container in the fridge. Use within 4-5 days.
  • Add this sauce to your next Pizza Pasta Bake!
