- In a medium saucepan, brown onion & garlic over medium heat. If using meat, brown with the onion & garlic-drain well.

This is really good, quick and easy. There is one spice that is coming through to strong for me and it must be coming from the italian seasoning. I added ground beef to the sauce and I first had it on top of multi-grain penne. I enjoyed leftovers much more on regular spaghetti noodles. I really like the consistency of this sauce and with a little tweaking, I will be making it again. Thank You Luv!!! PAC Fall '07.
