I have never had any luck with spaghetti sauce until now. My daughter and I collaborated to make this delicious sauce that I think is the best that I have ever had or made, lol. I know it's cheating a little, but the additions make this recipe a keeper.

Add envelope of dry spaghetti sauce mix, half a jar of spaghetti sauce, brown sugar (more or less-depending on your taste), sauteed onion, extra virgin olive oil, salt, red pepper flakes (reduce or omit if you don't like your spaghetti sauce spicy) and ground black pepper. Stir well. If sauce is too thick-add more from the jar of spaghetti sauce until the perfect consistency.
