Recipe(tried): Nick's Spaghetti Sauce

When my cousin got married they served spaghetti, this was a great idea due to the portion control element. If you run low, it's easy to open another jar of spaghetti sauce or just start serving smaller portions. If less people show up, serve larger portions. With salad and garlic bread you can't go to wrong.

NICK'S SPAGHETTI SAUCE

olive oil
1/2 pkg jimmy dean spicy hot sausage
1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 chopped yellow onion
1 small can mushroom stems and pieces, diced
1 large can hunts brand spaghetti sauce with mushrooms
1 large can hunts brand spaghetti sauce with meat
2 cloves garlic, peeled and cut on ends
Italian seasoning
2 bay leaves
1 dash salt (to taste)
1 dash sugar (to taste)

Heat some olive oil in bottom of a large kettle then, add sausage and beef together and brown meat.

Then add the chopped onions and the mushrooms and saute to cook down and remove excess moisture.

When the onions get transparent and have cooked down add cans of sauce and seasonings. Then reduce heat to a low simmer and cook till small boil point. Careful to stir continually so as not to burn the sauce on the bottom of pan.

Serve over your favorite pasta or use for manicotti or lasagna.
