I'm always bulking up recipes with veggies to get in that extra nutrition especially (originally) for children and now grandchildren. Amazing how if they don't taste a veggie per se, they devour them.

How to Make "Plump up the Veggie" Spaghetti Sauce
- Lightly sauté veggies and spices in pan with minimal amt. of olive oil.
- Combine sauté mix, browned protein, and other ingredients in crock pot or large soup kettle.
- I turn it on low with an occasional stir during the course of my day or crock pot on low 4-8 hrs.
- Serve over any type of prepared pasta, Freezes well in smaller quantities so you just use amount desired for a lot of meals if not hosting a group of 8-12 in one sitting. Sdd a salad and garlic bread - done.
