- 1 can of crushed tomatoes, about 15 ounces
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup cider vinegar

- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cayenne
- Salt to taste
METHOD:
1 Heat the vegetable oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring often.
2 When the onions are just beginning to brown, add the remaining ingredients and stir well to combine. Simmer for 30 minutes.
