This is a great sauce for pasta, even makes good pizza sauce. When I make a batch, I normally use half, then freeze the rest in smaller containers so I always have some on hand! Ingredients:

1 medium yellow onion, chopped |
3 (28 ounce) cans organic whole tomatoes |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1 1/2 cups semi-dry white wine |
1 tablespoon dried oregano |
fresh basil, chopped |
fresh ground pepper |
kosher salt |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in sauce pan.
2. Add onion and salt. Cook unil translucent.
3. Add garlic and cook until starting to turn golden.
4. Add 1 cup of the wine,red pepper flakes and tomatoes(with juices).
5. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Simmer for 1 hour.
6. Add oregano, then use immersion blender(or transfer to standing blender) to blend until desired consistency.
7. Continue to simmer until thickened.
8. Add remaining 1/2 cup wine and basil.
