Instructions
Cook spaghetti according to package instructions. Drain, toss with olive oil, and set aside.
In a large pot, add the olive oil and begin by sautéing the garlic and onions over low heat. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes until edges begin to brown. Stir in the red pepper flakes.
Crush tomatoes and add them to the pot, adding the canning liquid/sauce as well. Add basil, salt, and pepper. Stir until all ingredients are well combined. Simmer on low for 25 minutes.
When the sauce is finished cooking, add the sauce over cooked spaghetti, and garnish with extra basil.
