Josh's Spaghetti Sauce

My second-favorite spaghetti sauce recipe. Kathy's "Best Spaghetti Sauce" is the fave. This is probably as good, only it's just a little different than your traditional, and when I'm in the mood for spaghetti, I usually want traditional. But to change things up, this is great!

From Josh Simonen

1 small can stewed tomatoes, with juice
2 jars spaghetti sauce (The best you can find)
1-2 pounds Italian sausage (Deli type), sliced into thin pieces
1/4 small onion, diced (red is best)
3-4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1 small green tomato, diced
mushrooms if desired
black olives if desired

Put sauce and stewed tomatoes into saucepan, splash with pepper, turn heat to low and let warm. Mince 1/2 the garlic and put it in sauce, mince the other garlic and put it in the frying pan. Put mushrooms, olives, onions etc into the sauce and let warm - cook with olive oil in a pan the sausage and garlic then add to sauce. Let sauce warm up and cook a little hotter for about 1/2 hour - don't stir. Let thicken, at end add about 1 heaping spoonful of cinnamon, stir and let warm 10 more minutes. Serve over spinach noodles.
