1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound bulk Italian sausage
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 sweet Italian pepper, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 zucchini, sliced
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 (14 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 tablespoon tomato paste, or more as needed (optional)
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chopped dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage and garlic in hot oil until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer sausage and garlic to a plate using a slotted spoon, leaving any drippings in the saucepan.
2
Saute onion, green pepper, sweet pepper, and salt in the same saucepan until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini and continue cooking until onion is translucent, 5 to 10 minutes more. Drain off any excess liquid.
3
Stir sausage, crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, rosemary, parsley, black pepper, and red pepper flakes into onion-zucchini mixture. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors blend and sauce is thickened, about 2 hours.
