Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil
1 red onion, chopped
6 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
2 14 1/2- to 16-ounce cans ready-cut tomatoes with juices

Directions:
1. Heat oil in heavy Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion, garlic, oregano and crushed red pepper and sauté 5 minutes.
