Spaghetti Sauce

This is my family famous one hour pasta sauce, on occasion, when I have remembered to buy it, I will add a pound of Italian sausage too. Super easy, super fast and tastes great.

1 pound ground beef
1/2 - 1 med onion chopped
3 cloves garlic
2 tbsp Italian Seasoning
1/2 cup water
salt and pepper
1 26 oz can of Hunt's pasta sauce, I use the traditional flavor
1 14.5 oz can of petite diced tomatos, you can also add fresh tomato's if you have some fresh ones
1 4 oz can of mushrooms, leave juice in it, optional

Sautee onions and garlic in olive oil until they are clear. Add burger, water and Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, cook until brown. Add pasta sauce, tomato's and mushrooms. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, about an hour.

This can be used for spaghetti sauce or lasagna sauce, add a little more water to your sauce and you don't have to cook your lasagna noodles. Use a cup instead of 1/2 a cup.
