Hi Everyone and Happy Halloween to you! Like anyone with children, I am looking for quick ideas for dinner tonight so that the kiddies can get fed and out the door for trick or treating. This is what I've done in the past...

Today's recipe is quick and filling but not too heavy. By starting with pre-packaged sauce, most of the work is done for you. Remember, if you put the water on to boil first, you can spend your time heating the sauce and adding your own special touch to it then when the spaghetti is ready, drain and add the sauce...nobody will ever know it came from a package! Enjoy and Have a save Halloween.!

Speedy Spaghetti and Sauce

1 pkg. frozen or refrigerated sauce, (either white or red)
1 finely chopped onion
1 tsp. minced garlic
3/4 tsp. each - dried oregano and basil
worchestershire sauce, to taste
1 can drained mushrooms
salt and fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
12 oz. spaghetti

1. In large nonstick skillet over medium heat, warm the sauce. Add onion, mushroom, garlic, oregano and basil then heat until onion is softened.
2. Meanwhile, in large pot of boiling salted water, cook spaghetti for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender but firm; drain.

Serve topped with sauce. May be served with side salad and garlic bread but breathe easy if they only eat the spaghetti and sauce.
