Very Easy Spaghetti Sauce:
Yield: 4 Servings

1/2 diced green pepper or red pepper
1/2 diced onion
2 chopped tomatoes
1-2 crushed garlic cloves
1 cup tomato sauce
1/2 c red or white wine
1/2 c cream or milk
your favorite spices: basil, oregano, etc…
salt & pepper to taste

Heat olive oil in large skillet till water sizzles. Add 1/2 diced green pepper, 1/2 diced onion, 1 to 2 crushed & diced cloves garlic, and a couple chopped large tomatoes (peeled if you prefer). You can also add other veggies if you wish. After they saute for about 5 minutes, add one cup tomato sauce, 1/2 cup red or white wine (or stock, or water from the cooking pasta), and 1/2 cup cream (or milk). Flavor with a sprinkle of oregano, basil, salt and pepper. Turn down heat and simmer about 5 minutes. Serve over pasta. This sauce is quite different from the normal cook-all-day sauces; it is more fresh and vibrant, but not as complex. It will accomodate almost any vegetable you choose to add. Try eggplant or broccoli or asparagus.
