4 cloves garlic1 med onions, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano leaves
1-2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves ( your preference)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tsp salt ( optional )
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 small can of tomato paste {optional; use if your sauce is not thick enough for you}
