How to Make Portly Spaghetti Sauce

  3. Pour in 24 oz your favorite spaghetti sauce. Add 1/4 cup tawny port to the empty spaghetti sauce jar, swish to get any remaining sauce, and pour into the skillet.
  4. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender. Stir occasionally.
