Pasta with Calamari Sauce

Calamari is delicious. 'Nuff said, now onto the recipe.

Ingredients:

• 2 cans whole tomatoes
• Garlic
• Onion
• Red pepper flakes
• Italian seasoning
  
• Pack of CLEAN frozen squid, whole and thawed
  
• Pasta

In a medium pot, place a light layer of olive oil. Chop approximately 4 cloves of garlic and one small onion and saute until translucent.Take thawed squid and chop into 'rings', I use the legs as well - freaks some people out. (NOTE: you can use fresh squid from the grocer, however, make sure it is cleaned. Cleaning squid that has not been de-inked is nasty and it takes a lot of time. To avoid this mess. . . just don't go there). Add squid to pot and stir gently until it starts to 'curl' on the ends.

Puree tomatoes in the blender and add. Season with a pinch of red pepper flakes and Italian Seasoning, salt, pepper to taste. I like my sauce a little spicy so I tend to throw in a bit more of the red pepper flakes - your call! Bring to a simmer and let cook for at least 25 minutes.

Cook pasta according to box and top with the sauce - add grated cheese and enjoy!!!!

Nothing says loving . . . like squid on the table . . .
