EASY RED PASTA SAUCE

Plain, simple, no frills, basic red sauce that tastes great on a variety of pasta and is not watered down. For making a good sauce, use canned tomatoes. Except for the summer months, the 'fresh' tomatoes are usually harvested when green and left a long time to ripen. Add more red pepper flakes if you like your sauce spicy!

Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
