SICILIAN LENTIL PASTA SAUCE
This is a great chunky vegetarian pasta sauce which almost tastes meaty. It is easy to sneak a few more vegetables in there if desired. The sugar is not strictly necessary and you may be able to omit the second lot of water. My toddler LOVED this recipe and couldn't get enough.

SICILIAN EASY PASTA SAUCE
This is how my mother taught me to make sauce, with a few of my own touches. It's a little unusual in that all the tomato comes from canned products, but it makes it easy to whip some up. This is a large quantity because I always make enough to freeze. You can make it with any number of meats or without if you prefer. Use the best tomato products you can afford (Campbell's, Contadina). You don't need any salt since the canned products tends to have plenty. I use the low sodium versions when I can find them. To freeze, put cooled sauce in old plastic tubs from whipped cream. When you want to use one, just dip the container in hot water and the sauce will pop out into a saucepan. Heat on low. It will take about the same time to warm up as it does to boil your pasta.

- Brown meat in separate pan. Add to sauce when browned.
- Simmer sauce about 2 hours.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your sauce.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many ingredients at once, the sauce will be watery and bland. Cook the ingredients in batches if necessary.
- Let the sauce simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
- Season the sauce to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta. You can also use it as a dipping sauce for bread or vegetables.
- Make a big batch of sauce and freeze it for later. This is a great way to have a delicious meal on hand whenever you need it.
