Pasta with Sauce

OK.. so even cooks don't like to put a lot of thought into cooking sometimes. Here's yet another easy-on-the-cook and easy-on-the-budget meal that will fill up the family with minimal complaints. Most of the ingredients I just grabbed from my on-demand grocery story (hubby's garden).

Pasta with Tomato Sauce

1 cut up medium onion
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 cup shredded zucchini
20 oz. whole, canned tomatoes (with juice)
1/2 cup dry, red wine
Italian Seasoning
salt & pepper to taste

preheat large frying pan with some olive oil;

chop onion and saute for about 5-7 minutes or so

add garlic and zucchini and saute for another 2 minutes

add tomatoes with juice. Squish tomatoes with your hand to break down.

add remaining ingredients and let simmer for an hour or so.

Boil pasta according to directions. Drain pasta and serve with tomato sauce on top. Goes great with a green salad and cheesy bread.
