Spaghetti with Homemade Sauce

Boil:

6 qt water

1 tsp olive oil

1/2 med. pkg of spaghetti noodles

Brown:

1 lb ground beef or turkey

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 tsp fresh minced garlic

2-3 tsp season salt

1 (4.5 oz) can mushrooms, drained

Drain meat and then add:

2-3 (8 oz) cans of Hunts flavored tomato sauce (depending on how saucy vs meaty you like it)

2 tbsp of Italian seasoning (or according to your preferred taste)

Dash of pepper

Let simmer on low until sauce thickens (about 10-15minutes)

Sometimes I add extra garlic powder & Italian or basil seasoning once it has simmered

Optional Add-ins:

Chopped zucchini (chopped into very small pieces)

Olives (1 4 oz can of sliced)

Shredded cheese (to place on top after dished out)

Note: The spaghetti sauce is great to double (or more) and freeze!
