Strano's Garden Marinara

7 cloves garlic, minced

1 medium onion, chopped

10 tomatoes, chopped

1 container mushrooms, sliced

1 cup basil, chopped

1/4 cup oregano (fresh), chopped

olive oil

white wine

salt, pepper

parmesan cheese

1 lb. rigatoni, cooked al dente

In a large skillet, add a couple tablespoons of olive oil and bring it to a medium heat.  Add onion and garlic.  Saute until fragrant.  add mushrooms, cooking about 5 minutes.  Then add tomatoes.  Allow veggies to cook down.  Then add a good cup of white wine.  Let simmer 10-15 minutes so the alcohol evaporates and the flavors come together.  Add herbs.  Season with salt and pepper.  Add 1 tablespoon of butter at the end.  This will give the marinara a glossy finish.

Toss with rigatoni.  Serve with parmesan cheese and additional chopped basil on top.

Enjoy!
