Sorry, as soon as I saw "jar of mushroom and green pepper spaghetti sauce" I had to stop reading. That is convict food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you're missing here is that Joe's a proud Italian and jarred sauce is a crime against food in his book. Hell, I'm not even Italian (though grew up in very Italian neighborhoods), and I'm with him on this one for sure. The little effort required to make a decent sauce is worth the vast improvement in taste over that jarred nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever protein is in the fridge cooked in olive oil and whatever sauce i have in a jar = Bachelor delicacy. Though I have been cutting up onions lately and throwing some in there. Which I guess counts as effort. This is progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about what people who actually enjoy food should eat, not what one would consume to stave off hunger. Garlic, onion, canned tomatoes, a little sugar (to cut down acidity of tomatoes), and some fresh basil and you can make yourself a basic pomodoro in under 20 minutes.

Hey, hey, I'd say it's at least...1 step above that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
