     Spahgetti

In large, heavy stockpot

Add:
2 lbs Italian sausage, casings removed (mild or hot) brown Italian sausage, breaking up.

Add:
1 small chopped onion until onions are softened

Add:
3-4 garlic cloves, minced
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 cups water
Stir well and barely bring to a boil

Add:
3 teaspoons dried basil
2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper

Add: 1/4 cup red wine (a good Cabernet!) Stir in red wine.

Simmer on low, stirring frequently for 2 hours. A longer simmer makes for a better sauce, just be careful not to let it burn!
