Homemade Red Sauce

Homemade Red Sauce

This is super easy, plus it is cheaper and healthier.  I think this recipe produces about 2 jars of the store bought sauce and I usually stretch it to last two or three meals.  I will be honest, while this is yummy right when you make it, I think it tastes even better a day or two after being able to combine.
