Super Low-Fat/Low-Cal Tomato Sauce
Serves 4
-- Enough for one pound of your favorite pasta --
1 33 1/3-oz. can plum tomatoes, undrained
1 small onion, peeled and diced (1/2 cup)
1-2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tsp. dried basil
1/4-1/2 tsp. hot red pepper flakes
Salt to taste
Prepare pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, combine remaining ingredients in a 2-quart saucepan and heat to boiling.
Reduce heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, approximately 10-20 minutes. In a food processor or blender, puree small quantities of the sauce to desired consistency, using 3 to 4 quick on-off motions for a chunky sauce, longer for a smoother sauce.
When pasta is done, drain. Pour sauce over pasta and serve immediately.
