This is an outstanding recipe. I usually just buy Prego but thought it would be fun to make from scratch. Will never buy Prego again. The only thing I did different is I could not find fresh basil so I used dried. Next time I will use everything fresh. The flavor was amazing. My husband was very happy. This makes a huge pot so froze 2 separate portions to use at a later date. Can't wait!!! Ingredients:
2 (12 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes |

1/2 teaspoon dried basil, minced basil or 2 tablespoons fresh minced basil |
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste (add near end of cooking) |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
