Pasta is pretty much a staple in our household, we have some sort of pasta at least three times a week, and with my busy schedule sometimes, I don’t have time to make homemade sauce, so I doctor up store bought!
Here are a few easy things you can do to make it taste like homemade!
Busy? Make it ahead of time and keep it warm using a crockpot!
1) Add Sausage and or Hamburger, I usally add 1 pound of hamburger and four hot sausage and four sweet sausages.
2) Sautee up Mushrooms, Onions and Garlic!
3) Mix them together!
4) Add diced tomatoes for a nice chunky texture
5) can not forget the seasonings!
Add the sauce and enjoy!
Do you doctor up store bought sauce? If so what do you add?

For spaghetti sauce we get the generic basic sauce and add garlic to ours. Makes it yummy!
I love to start with a base like this and then add my own to it.
When i want something really good, yes I doctor up my sauces! Adding hamburger is our favorite way. And also a little more Italian style seasonings. They really turn a traditional store bought sauce into something more gourmet.
Sometimes I do, but more often than not, I’m lazy. I like your idea though!
I doctor up our sauce too. I add Italian sausage, onions and garlic.
