How to Make Marinara Sauce

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Cook and stir onions, green bell peppers, and garlic until onions turn translucent’ 5 to 10 minutes.
Add brown sugar, Italian seasoning, salt, oregano, basil, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Cook and stir until the brown sugar dissolves and the seasoning turns fragrant.
Stir tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and white wine into the seasoned onion mixture.
Bring to a boil for 10 minutes.
Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors have blended.
