Spaghetti

This is beyond odd... normally I make a pretty good spaghetti... in fact... IT ROCKS! But last night I tried a new sauce in a jar - I didn't have time to make the sauce myself. The sauce was called Tomato Basil (the brand was Eating Right - safeway's healthy eating brand). It smelled very unlike any pasta sauce I've had before...

I sautee'd my onion, garlic, VE garlic pepper, VE Herb Garlic Sea Salt and ground turkey (I'm trying to stay away from too much red meat right now)... then I added the sauce which was a very bright red... it didn't look or smell right. I cut up the rest of some awesome polish sausage I got at the Farmer's market on the weekend and shoved that in there too... I finished cooking the pasta and drained it. Then I heated a little EVO and some garlic together and tossed the pasta in that... I find it gives it a nice garlic flavor and keeps the noodles from clumping together. I added the sauce and gave it a stir... it really needed something so I added some shredded cheese to the mix.

Well... it wasn't horrible... but it didn't ROCK either. I don't know what I should add to the other jar of this pasta sauce I have to make it better...

I think next time I will shred some carrot and cook that in the sauce as well.
