Pasta is a staple food for any kitchen. It is inexpensive and filling. Not many of us have time to start marinara sauce from scratch so this recipe allows you to use a store bought sauce and then add your own spin to it. It is easy to make and freezes well. I use it for anything from spaghetti, manacotti, lasagna to chicken parmesan. Ingredients:
1 prego spaghetti sauce (i use their four cheese marinara sauce, or your favorite jarred sauce) |
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms (drained) |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce |
1/8 teaspoon oregano |
1/8 teaspoon bay leaf |
1/8 teaspoon basil |
1 pinch garlic salt |
1/2 teaspoon sugar |
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon (our family secret ingrediant, trust me!!) |
1/8 teaspoon minced garlic (to taste) |
1 tablespoon minced onion (to taste) |
salt and pepper (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a large sauce pan. 2. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 20-30 minutes. 3. Serve over your favorite pasta dish. |
