4 28-ounce can imported Italian plum tomatoes with basil, try to find San Marzano, they're a bit more expensive but will make a HUGE difference.
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
6 tablespoons minced onion
1 pound mild or sweet Italian sausage (If you don't have a favorite, we love Johnsonville Italian Sausage.)
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
8 leaves fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
