MY FAVORITE 'DOCTORED' JAR SPAGHETTI SAUCE

Steps:

• Saute the garlic in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until aromatic but not browned. Add the butter to melt, then the sauce, basil and spices. Heat thoroughly for about 10 minutes. At this point you can add frozen store bought meatballs and heat till warmed throughtout. Serve over your favorite pasta.
• I prefer Trader Joe's Turkey Meatballs but any brand will do.

• Saute onions and garlic in olive oil until browned .
• Mix everything together in a deep nonstick pot.

ENHANCE THAT JAR OF SPAGHETTI SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt butter with olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir mushrooms in butter mixture until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/4 cup red wine; bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the mushrooms are very dark and shrunken in size, about 20 minutes.
• Heat a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir ground beef, yellow onion, diced tomatoes, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and garlic together until the beef is completely browned, about 10 minutes; season with oregano, basil, and rosemary. Stir 3/4 cup red wine and tomato paste into the beef mixture. Pour spaghetti sauce into the pot; stir. Return mixture to a simmer and continue cooking until the flavors blend, 10 to 30 minutes.
