Ingredients
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 medium onion, chopped

    Place onions, garlic and bacon in pan and saute for about 5 minutes or until bacon is cooked through.

    Add tomatoes and then fill the empty tomato can about halfway with water and add to pan.
    Add as much or as little red pepper flakes as you like.
    Simmer over low heat for about 1/2 hour.
    Serve with penne pasta (or pasta of your choice).
