DIY Easy Spaghetti Sauce Recipe

I am on a journey in life to eat less sugar and processed food. I found a spaghetti sauce recipe and tweaked it to make it my own. It is very easy. Let me know if you try it and what you thought.

Ingredients:

1/2 of a Large Yellow Onion, chopped
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 tbsp of Garlic, minced
2 28 oz cans of Crushed Tomatoes
2 tsp of dried Basil
1 lb of mild Italian Sausage
salt and pepper to taste 

Cook the mild Italian sausage in a skillet on medium high heat. Brown it until there is no pink meat. Drain off the fat. Set off to the side. Heat up the extra virgin olive oil in a stock pot on medium heat. Saute the onions, garlic and basil for about 5 minutes or longer depending on how cooked you want them. Add the crushed tomatoes and stir well. Finally add the Italian sausage to the sauce. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.

You can omit the meat if you want a meatless sauce. You could also cook other vegetables with the onion and garlic. We ate this over spaghetti squash. It would be great over zucchini noodles as well.
