Introduction
This versatile sauce can be used for lasagna, for casseroles, as a garnish for baked potatoes, within omelettes, or on top of pasta. You can add whatever you'd like, such as artichoke hearts, olives, spinach, or just have the sauce plain. The whiskey adds a great kick and there is no alcohol involved in the finished product. If you wish to leave the whiskey out, double the amount of Worcestershire sauce you add while sauteing the vegetables for the sauce to have a nice, good kick.

Ingredients
-
4 serving Pomi chopped tomato (1/2 cup 125Mlserv.) (by INGMARIE)
3 cup Pomi Tomato Sauce-strained (by SUZYDAVE2)
2 cup Tomato, canned, peeled whole, no salt added (by SPACEYSTACY)
0.5 cup Tomato Paste
1.5 cup, chopped Onions, raw
6 clove Garlic
2 tsp Oregano, ground
1 dash Salt
1 fl oz Whiskey
2 tsp Lee and Perkins Worchestershire sauce reduced sodium (by ALGROVE1)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Tips
Need more sauce for your meal? Not a problem. Just add more water, but be sure to increase the amount of tomato paste, or your sauce will be too runny. A good rule of thumb is to add a 1/4 cup of paste for every additional cup of water.
Directions
Chop all of the desired vegetables. Chopping the onion into larger pieces will make the sauce chunky, while dicing the onion into smaller pieces will make the sauce smoother. Mince the garlic.
Heat oil in the pan you wish to use for the spaghetti sauce. Saute both the onion and garlic on high heat for 1 minute, stirring constantly to ensure the onion and garlic are heated evenly. Add the Worcestershire sauce, whiskey, oregano, and salt, and reduce heat to simmer, continuing to stir the vegetables frequently to evenly distribute the seasoning. When the onions become transparent, add the chopped tomato, strained sauce, and whole tomatoes. Stir the sauce occasionally to ensure vegetables are distributed throughout the sauce. Once the sauce is steaming, add the tomato paste ensuring the paste is thoroughly mixed throughout the sauce.
Simmer on low for 20 minutes.
