Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 tsp dried red pepper
2 (28 oz) cans tomatoes
1 cup fresh basil
2 (15 oz) containers ricotta cheese
14 oz feta cheese, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chives, chopped
2 eggs
1 (12 oz) package jumbo pasta shells

Directions:

For the sauce: Chop canned tomatoes in a food processor with their juices.
Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add onion, saute for about 5 minutes.
Add garlic, saute for an additional 2 minutes.
Add red pepper and chopped tomatoes with their juices. Simmer sauce for about an hour, stirring occasionally until the sauce is reduced to 5 cups.
