Top with homemade sauce...
1 28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes
1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
2 tsp. minced garlic
1⁄2 cup of dry red wine( I use Chianti)
1 tsp. salt
1⁄2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. sugar
1⁄2 tbsp. chopped fresh basil
Cook onions in oil for about 2 minutes, add rest of ingredients and simmer for about 20 minutes. Add Meat if desired. Pour over shells and bake until hot and bubbly, top with shredded mozzarella at the last 5 minutes.
I'm making that this weekend. I have some sauce frozen that I got up in Little Italy but given how easy you have made your recipe look I'm going to give it a shot.
