Red Sauce

 I figure since it's almost Valentines I'd better post a recipe that had to do with red.  This is the easiest, quickest, tastiest red sauce.  Throw it on pasta or dip your cheese sticks into it; you'll love it & it won't take long to whip up.  Here's the skinny...
Ingredients
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cans (6oz) tomato paste
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1 can (14.5 oz) stewed tomatoes
1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
1 cup water
Directions
In large pot mix all the ingredients together.  Simmer over low heat for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Add more salt if needed.  Enjoy!  (makes about 5 cups)
*Make it a yummy spaghetti sauce by sauteing 2 Tablespoons butter, 1 large onion (diced), and 1 green pepper (diced) for 5 minutes before adding all the other ingredients.  You could also add mushrooms if you're into that sort of thing- which I am.
