Directions:
- In a 3 1/2 qt saucepan, cook sausage in a bit of olive oil until brown and crumbly. Remove sausage from pan and wipe pan clean with a paper towel.
- Place 1 tbsp olive oil in the saucepan, adding the onion and the garlic. Cook until onion is translucent, stirring frequently and don't allow garlic to burn.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, stirring to combine. Then add the tomato paste, stirring until dissolved.
- Add water, oregano, basil and cinammon (if using). Season to taste with salt and pepper. If tomatoes are too acidic, add a sprinkle of sugar to counteract.
- Mix in the cooked sausage, adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for a minimum of 30 minutes, semi-covered, stirring occasionally until rich and thick.
- NOTE FOR MOMS: when the kids were young, I would often add shredded zuchinni and/or carrots at the same time as the onions. This way, they got their veggies too on spaghetti night . I think you might have to add a tad more liquid for this option.
