1 sm. onion, chopped
1 med. clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 (28 oz.) can crushed tomatoes or 3 lbs. fresh equivalent
2 tbsp. chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. basil, crushed
1 tsp. salt
Dash of black pepper
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. butter
2 tbsp. Parmesan cheese

In 3 quart saucepan, saute onion and garlic in olive oil until onion is tender, stirring often. Add remaining ingredients, simmer 25 minutes, stirring occasionally until well blended. Makes about 2 1/2 cups sauce. I use this sauce over linguine.
