Italian Cooking Sauce mix

I love this recipe. It is so simple and quick to make yet yummy all at the same time. The best part is that it is made to be fozen so that you can pull out some home made spaghetti sauce anytime. It is a great recipe to save some money and have great fast spaghetii sauce.

2 (14.5 oz) cans of stewed tomatoes, pureed
4(8 oz.) cans tomato sauce
2c water
2(6 oz) cans tomato paste
2 T instant minced onion
2 T parsley flakes
3t salt
2T cornstarch
4 t green pepper flakes (I never put this in because I don't ever have it)
1t instant minced garlic
3t sugar
1.5t Italian seasoning

Combine all ingredients in a large kettle or dutch oven. Simmer 15 minutes over medium-low heat. Cool. Put into six 1-pint (or whatever size is convenient for you) freezer containers, leaving 1/2 inch space at top. Seal and label containers. Freeze. Use within 6 months. Makes about 6 pints of Sauce. Enjoy!!

I usually make this for dinner one night and then freeze the rest!
