- 2 can Italian peeled tomatoes

- salt
Add oregano and salt and stir; cook on low at least 10 minutes and at most 15 to 20, without letting it burn.
Add the meat a little at a time with space between and cook no more than 2 minutes, stirring, so it stays tender.
Two minutes for the meat
- pepper
Turn off the heat, add pepper and tear in the basil; stir quickly.
