Pasta Gravy (RED)

4 large cans tomatoes
2 cans tomato paste
1/2 T garlic powder
1/2 cup red wine
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup grating cheese

Add all to a pot and blend well with a hand blender OR blend tomatoes in a blender, pour into pot and add the rest, stirring well.

Cover and simmer for about 90 minutes.

If you are adding meat to the sauce, you may need 2 more cans of tomato paste to re thicken since the meat will release juices.
