This was really good. I didn't add tomato sauce. My husband liked it as it was. I also added somne chinese and herb spice. Thanks for sharing.

I prepared this for supper tonight and mixed it with MizEmerilLagasse's Pasta Sauce #1 (recipe # 90414). I found that I was a little short on the sauce, so you could halve the meat or double the sauce. For the sake of time, I added 2 cups of prepared sauce (yes...from a jar). I let it simmer for about 2 hours and served it over linguini. I also served it with RitaL's French Bread with Roasted Garlic, (recipe #135619). It was excellent and my family requested that I make the combo again.

This is good! Directions were easy and clear, and I cooked it exactly as written. Perfect blend of veggies & herbs, I thought. I used Prego 3 Cheese spaghetti sauce, vermicelli pasta, and sprinkled parmesan cheese on top of the servings. Thank you for this simple to follow recipe, islandkiss23! Stacy :)

This was pretty good! I added a 29 ounce can of tomato sauce to it, and let it simmer until the spaghetti was all cooked and ready to go. It served about 6 people. I found that I personally liked it better when I mixed some of the other sauce (just regular Prego's Fresh Mushrooms spaghetti sauce) I put out- it gave it more flavor. (I had the alternative sauce because of my little sister, who really doesn't like meat). My mom loved it just as it was, though. I served this with breadsticks using Karen in tbay's "Pizza Hut Breadstick Seasoning," which was a hit thanks to your sauce to dip it in. Thanks for sharing!
