Chop and saute' all the vegetables (except the garlic) but not all the way thru. Add all the seasonings, add the garlic and don't let the garlic brown. Add the paste, let it heat up with all of this goodness, then add the sauce and stewed tomatoes slowly so as not to cool down the other stuff. Bring to a slow boil (if you are cooking meatballs add them now) then turn
down to simmer for 45 minutes. Serve over pasta, or as meatball sandwiches, etc. Top with fresh basil and/or grated Parmesan or Romano cheese. Add a batch of garlic bread and Enjoy! Should be enough for a family meal or two.
