I make a BIG batch of this and either can or freeze it. It’s wooooonderful! We eat it in enchiladas, over tacos, burritos, etc. The smell as it’s cooking is simply divine. 
Very easy to make!
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2-3 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1-2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 heaping tablespoon minced garlic (love garlic!)
1 – 8oz can tomato sauce
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Saute onions in oil, add spices and garlic and cook for a couple of minutes. Add other ingredients and simmer on low for at least 30-45 minutes. Stir occasionally to make sure it doesn’t stick. Adjust seasonings to your taste. If you like really hot food, you could add red pepper flakes to this too. (I like a little spice, but not heat!)
I process this in my blender after it cools (kiddo doesn’t like onions), and the consistency is excellent.
