Easy Marinara Sauce

This is a weight watchers Marinara Sauce that we spiced up a little.  You can start with the basic sauce and pretty much add anything you want.  I added squash, zucchini and bell peppers....I think a few mushrooms would be a good addition.  Any way....it's easy and great tasting!

32 ounce can of crushed tomatos
16 ounce can of tomato sauce
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic

Heat the olive oil in a pot.  Add the garlic and saute for about one minute.  Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for as long as you can wait to eat.  Seriously, I added the veggies and simmered the sauce long enough for the veggies to get tender.  I served this over whole wheat penne pasta with a salad and a bottle of red wine....if only I had a good baguette it would have been perfect!
Enjoy.
