Ingredients
- 1-2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 large onion diced
- 4-5 garlic cloves minced or pressed
- 4 14.5 oz. cans crushed or diced tomatoes (If using diced tomatoes, you can choose to pulse them in a blender a few times to get a less chunky sauce)

- 1-2 Tbsp. sugar to taste
- 1 Tbsp. corn starch
- 2 tsp. dried basil
- 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
- Pinch of red pepper flakes
- Pinch of baking soda
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until the onions are translucent. Add remaining sauce ingredients and combine well. Make sure to adjust your sugar, salt and pepper ratios now while the sauce is not too hot. Bring to a simmer and turn heat down to low. Simmer for 25-30 minutes. Refrigerate or freeze leftovers.
