Instructions
Sauce
Step 1
In a small pot on low heat, mix the tomato chunks (undrained, so with the luquid it came in) and puree. Keep this on low heat and stir constantly (every minute or 2 or whenever you see bubbles) until done or longer (longer time will not hurt the sauce).
Step 2
Add all spices to taste. Generally I use about 2 shakes of each spice to start, and go from there as I see fit.
Step 3
Keep the sauce on low heat until the noodles are done.
Noodles
Step 4
Cook noodles according to their packaging, strain, and add the sauce. You should have leftover sauce most of the time when cooking one package of tortellini.
Step 5
Package any left over sauce and keep it in the fridge, it stays good for about a week and a half if sealed and left alone.
