Making homemade sauce is so much better than jarred! All you need are a handful of ingredients that you likely already have in your pantry! To make the sauce, cook onion and garlic in a couple tablespoons of olive for 5 minutes or until softened. Add in the ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any excess fat. Add in the tomato pasta and mix well. Cook for 1 minute. Add in the diced fire roasted tomatoes, tomato sauce, dried oregano, dried basil, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Simmer for a few minutes before adding the pasta.
