- Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and ground beef; cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.

- Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
For a vegetarian version, substitute the ground beef with 1 cup of cooked lentils or crumbled vegetarian sausage. You can also add other vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for extra flavor and nutrients. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
