I follow Mario Batali's basic tomato sauce recipe. It's inexpensive, quick, and easy to make. Usually, that will be the base for whatever additions are called for. I thought the prices discussed here were very high until I looked it up and saw MB's sauce is ridiculously expensive as well. I don't splurge on San Marzanos anymore. Hunts taste pretty good to me.
