Robert's Pasta Sauce





The Ingredients of Love

1 28 oz. can crushed or diced tomatoes.
7 fresh basil leaves
2 fl oz extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed 1/2 cup red wine
1 T Splenda
1 large onion
freshly ground black pepper

Let's put it togather!

Sauté onions in olive oil over low heat, covered, for 10-12 minutes.

Add garlic and basil, re-cover, for another 5 minutes or so.

Uncover and add wine. Reduce by about half.

Add tomatoes and splenda and pepper, and simmer for 15-20 minutes.

If you want to turn this sauce into Neapolitan Sauce, add 10-12 sliced ripe olives, and 1 1/2 T capers just before finishing.

Fresh Italian Parsley can be added at the end if you like it.

For a nice twist, add 3-5 crushed and chopped anchovies. I can feel the love!!
