| 2 Tbsp. large sliced garlic (or more to taste) |

Pic-Pac Sauce Directions
- Place the garlic and extra virgin olive oil into a sauté pan and heat together on low, stirring occasionally.
- Cook to soften garlic and release its flavor into the oil. Do not brown garlic or it will overcook. Let garlic and oil mixture cool.
- Add the tomatoes with their juices along with the salt and pepper to the garlic and oil pan.
- Stir until thoroughly mixed and add the basil and stir again.
- Heat shortly at medium-low. Follow the instructions on pasta and toss it with the sauce.
- If you're using zucchini instead of pasta, add to the sauce mixture and heat just until they begin to get soft. Toss, serve and enjoy!
