My Italian nana calls this her 'Sunday Gravy' -- The house always smells so amazing all day!

For a spicier version, use hot Italian sausage and add extra red pepper flakes. You can also incorporate other meats like pork ribs or beef short ribs for additional flavor. If you prefer a smoother sauce, blend the tomatoes before adding them to the pot. For a vegetarian twist, replace the meat with hearty vegetables like eggplant and mushrooms, and use vegetable broth instead of meat drippings.
