Preparation

Step 1

In a 3 quart saucepan, heat olive oil and saute garlic until golden brown . Stir in stewed tomatoes and tomato sauce.Stir in basil, Italian seasoning and oregano,salt and pepper.Simmer until ready to serve. Add tomato paste to make the sauce thicker.

If you like meat in your sauce add it.

I brown chicken breasts in olive oil and garlic, then cover with sauce and simmer until done
serve with spaghetti noodles.
