For a richer flavor, consider browning the sausage in a tablespoon of olive oil before adding the onions and garlic. Feel free to substitute ground beef, turkey, or chicken for the Italian sausage. Add sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, or spinach for extra vegetables. Adjust the amount of water depending on your desired sauce consistency. Add more water if the sauce becomes too thick during cooking. A sprinkle of red pepper flakes adds a touch of heat.
