http://kitchenmeetsgirl.com/simple-tomato-sauce/

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 can (15 ounces) crushed tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• salt, to taste

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a small saute pan over medium-high heat. Once oil is warm, add minced garlic and cook, stirring frequently for 1 to 2 minutes, or until fragrant. Keep a close eye on the garlic; if it becomes brown or scorched it will taste bitter.
2. In a medium bowl, combine garlic oil mixture with the remaining ingredients. Season with salt to taste. Use immediately. May refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
