Lasagna Sauce

This recipe is a modified version of 'The Best Spaghetti Sauce in the World' from Allrecipes.com. While it is good, it is certainly not 'the best'. It's gotten LOTS of good reviews but it didn't give me that WOW! factor it gave everyone else. This isn't good enough for me to be a stand alone sauce on pasta so it's been resigned to lasagna. At least it makes a delicious lasagna. If it didn't, I wouldn't even keep this recipe around.

Lasagna Sauce

1 28oz can crushed tomatoes
1 15oz can tomato sauce
2 6oz cans tomato paste
1/2 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp fennel seed
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound cooked Italian sausage


Combine everything in a large sauce pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Turn down heat to low and simmer 30-45 minutes. Let cool before assembling lasagna.
