The ingredients for shamefully simple chunky mushroom tomato sauce are:

Hunt's Crushed Tomatoes, 28 oz
store brand pieces & stems canned mushrooms, 8 oz
BIG handful each: dried basil, parsely
rosemary (I always use it with mushrooms, even just a little)
some Kosher salt
BIG heaping tablespoon of minced garlic (I buy the huge jars at Costco - I am serious about my garlic)

Here is how you make shamefully simple chunky mushroom tomato sauce:

I threw my can of mushrooms in the a sauce pot over medium and let them cook up a bit. I then added the whole can of crushed tomatoes and spices. Brought it up to a boil and then let is simmer and pop until the rest of my meal was ready. SO EASY and tasted delicious.How I ate it:I served myself 2oz. whole wheat penne, 1 oz. of sauteed fresh spinach, 1/2 of a hot Italian sausage link that I removed casing to cook, and 1/4 cup of fat free ricotta. FYI: I actually threw the spinach in my non-stick pan with the sausage (after I drained the sausage and wiped out the pan). Once it wilted I added the ricotta and let it all melt together a bit. I threw it into my serving bowl and topped it all with 1 cup of this sauce. I added some fresh black pepper, too.I intend to serve the last two cups of sauce over creamy polenta for a tasty meat free meal.Number of Servings: 3Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user LITTLE_DIVA.
