There might not be funds or time to make a great Italian spaghetti sauce from scratch. You use the inexpensive canned or jar sauce that is sitting in the cabinet as a base and come up with a great tasting sauce.
When adding ingredients add a very small amount, allow it to simmer, taste, and adjust as needed. Saute vegetables, brown meats, and nearly cooked (it can finish in the sauce).
Seasonings that can be added:
- Italian
- Oregano
- Parsley
- Garlic
Vegetables
- Sliced mushrooms
- Chopped onion
- Chopped red bell peppers
Meats
- Ground beef
- Italian sausage
- Meatballs
- Beef stew meat
- Chicken breast
Canned
- Stewed tomatoes
- Tomato paste
- Canned tomatoes
- Tomato puree
Write down what you try and how much you added so you can repeat what works and avoid what didn’t.
