olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

tomato sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade tomato puree

💰Cheaper: canned tomatoes

Canned tomatoes are often less expensive and can be pureed at home.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes; sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Stir in chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add spaghetti to the skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.

Pour in tomato sauce and enough water to cover the spaghetti.

Season with salt and black pepper; bring to a simmer.

Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until spaghetti is al dente and sauce thickens, about 10-12 minutes.

Add capers and anchovies; stir to combine and cook for another 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and fold in fresh basil and parsley.

Serve hot, garnished with grated parmesan cheese.
