• 1/4 pound mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 1 clove garlic minced or pressed
• 1 can (14 1/2 oz) Italian-style tomatoes, coarsely chopped
• 1/4 cup tomato paste
• 1/4 teaspoon each salt, pepper, and dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil

DIRECTIONS

• In a 2 to 3-quart saucepan heat oil over medium heat; add onion and mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until onion is soft and mushrooms brown lightly.
• Mix in garlic, tomatoes with their juice, tomato paste, salt, pepper, oregano, and basil. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes.
• Uncover, increase heat so sauce boils gently, and continue cooking until sauce is thickened and reduced to about 2 1/2 cups (12 to 15 minutes).
