Get one of these (cone strainer and pestle set):

take the tops off, and quarter some tomatoes. put them in a boiler with a small amount of water and let them cook till they are nice and soft.
Run them though the food strainer posted above.
put the product back in a boiler.
in a seperate pan fry up some peppers and onions.
add the peppers and onions to the tomato juice you have in the boiler.
add your favorite seasonings, i dont have my seasoning reciepie aviable right now, i will post it up later, but italian seasoning is a good start.
let the tomatoe sauce come to a boil and you now have tomatoe sauce. if you made a huge batch you can now go through the process of canning all of it in quart jars, boil the lids sanatize the jars, pour the sauce in, wipe around the lip, lid and seal.
then any time you want to make something like lasanga, speggeti or goulash you can just open a quart of the sauce and go from there.
for spagetti sauce just take some ground beef, cook it up, add the saauce to it and let it cook alittle longer till it thinkens up a bit.
you now have delisious meaty spagetti sauce.
Ill try to post up the spice recipie latyer today.
the cone strainer and pestle set is also great for makeing apple sauce if you ever plan on doing that.
