Sun Dried Tomato Pasta

We love pasta, and I love experimenting with new sauce ideas, instead of always eating the same old meat sauce. Here's a recipe for a really tasty sun dried tomato pasta sauce.

1 jar sun dried tomatoes in oil
1 can diced tomatoes
1Tbsp basil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1Tbsp red wine vinegar
2Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

In a medium sauce pan, heat oil from sun dried tomatoes, and olive oil.
Over medium heat, saute garlic for 2 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Add basil, sun dried tomatoes, and canned tomatoes.
Simmer for an hour.
If you don't like the chunks of sun dried tomatoes, pour sauce in blender and pulse a couple of times.

This sauce is great on tortelini, or any pasta for that matter.
