Ingredients:

• 1 can (14 oz) of tomato sauce
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, to balance acidity)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 8 oz pasta of your choice (spaghetti, penne, or any favorite)
• Fresh basil leaves, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Pasta:
   • In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Prepare the Sauce:
   • While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

3. Add the Tomato Sauce:
   • Pour the canned tomato sauce into the skillet with the onions and garlic. Stir to combine.
   • Add the dried oregano, dried basil, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Stir well.
   • Let the sauce simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the sauce is too acidic, add the sugar to balance the flavor.
4. Combine Pasta and Sauce:
   • Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the tomato sauce. Toss well to ensure the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.
