Andrew and Tasha's Spaghetti Sauce for Lazy People

I'm pretty sure Andrew taught me this little recipe, and we've been using it as our spaghetti sauce staple for years.  

Can you really call it a spaghetti sauce recipe when the core ingredient (the sauce) comes from a jar?  Yes.  Now quit quibbling and just cook.


Andrew and Tasha's Spaghetti Sauce for Lazy People

Ingredients


Italian sausage
Olive oil
Garlic, minced
Onion (yellow or white), chopped
Mushrooms (white or cremini), sliced
Green bell pepper, chopped
Canned tomatoes, chopped 
Two jars spaghetti sauce (aim a little higher than Ragu, but other than that the choice is yours)
Garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, dried oregano, and other such spices


Directions

Cook Italian sausage and set aside.

Saute garlic in olive oil until fragrant (~1 min).  Add onions, mushrooms, and bell pepper.  (I like to add the onions first to given them some extra time to caramelize). 

Once vegetables are cooked, add sausage, tomatoes, and spaghetti sauce.  (I recommend two jars because there is usually so many veggies in mine I need two.  Add as many or as little as you like).

Add spices as desired for flavor.  Cook until heated through.  Serve with spaghetti noodles and Parmesan cheese.
