Pasta Puttanesca (Low-FODMAP)

Anchovies, capers, and olives were three of my least favorite foods growing up. Therefore, pasta puttanesca was off the table. But now I LOVE them, so this dish is one of our favorites! It’s pretty easy to put together and you end up with delicious leftover wine to drink as well.
Neither my husband nor I eat onions and I can’t eat garlic, so I left them out/replaced them. It’s a sad world but I make do.

-2 bell peppers, diced

- Add in the remaining ingredients and break up the tomatoes. Stir well and reduce to a simmer.
- Let it cook for as long as you have, at least an hour, but longer the better. Stir occasionally.
