My Spaghetti Sauce

Ingredients

1 Jar regular Spaghetti Sauce (stay clear of the vodka or cheese sauces)
2 heaping tbls. Italian Seasoning (I prefer Pampered Chef but others will work)
2-3 cloves garlic - minced
1 can sliced olives (6 ounces)
1 small can sliced mushrooms
1 to 1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
1 small white onion chopped
1 quick dash olive oil
Salt & Pepper to taste

Preparation

Have all items that list being sliced, minced, or chopped done and liquids drained off them. Put the quick dash of olive oil on the bottom of a large deep pan at medium-high heat. Add the beef and stir/break up for 1 minute. Next add all the other items and jar of Spaghetti sauce. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Once at a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook at least 1 hour...If you can keeping it simmering for 3-4 hours (adding water only as needed to keep from drying out) that is ideal. Once done add to cooked spaghetti noodles.
