Ingredients

Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons (1 ounce) olive oil
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1/2 medium onion, diced
1 pound dry pasta, such as rigatoni, penne, fusilli, etc.
32 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
Optional add-ins: canned tuna, canned salmon, frozen vegetables or canned beans
6 slices provolone or mozzarella

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bring a pot of water to a boil and salt liberally.
Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the garlic and onions and saute, stirring, for 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, drop the pasta in the boiling water and cook 3 to 4 minutes less than the package instructions.
Add the crushed tomatoes to the saucepan and bring to a simmer. When simmering, stir in any add-ins if desired.
Drain the pasta and mix it into the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a baking dish and top with the provolone or mozzarella. Bake until the cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
