1/2 large chopped onion
2-3 cloves minced garlic
1 (6 oz) can no-salt added tomato paste
1/2 cup each red wine and water
1 (14.5 oz) can no-salt added crushed tomatoes
9 fresh chopped basil leaves
  1. Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. 
  2. Add oil, saute onions and garlic until golden brown. 
  3. Add tomato paste. Stir 2-3 min. Add water, wine, crushed tomatoes, and basil leaves. 
  4. Bring the sauce to a boil. Lower heat to low and simmer stirring occasionally for at least 20 min.
