Mamma's Spaghetti Sauce Spice Mix

From the Kitchen of: Sammie
Source: Sara's Kitchen

2	C	Dry minced onion
3	tbsp.	Oregano
2	tbsp.	Dried green pepper flakes
4	tsp.	Dried basil
1	tbsp.	Dry minced garlic
4	tsp.	Salt
4	tbsp.	Dry parsley
2	tsp.	Rosemary
2	tsp	Thyme
2	tsp	Marjoram OR 1 heaping tbsp. Italian seasoning mix

Add 3/4 cup dry mix to 1 lb. cooked ground beef, 3 24-oz. cans of crushed tomatoes, 1 cup fresh or canned mushrooms, one cup grated zucchini and/or grated carrots, and celery and onions to taste. Allow to simmer in crock pot all day or in stock pot on stove an hour or more until flavors blend & vegetables are soft.
Try this substituting cooked lentils for some of the beef. This is also good cooked meatless as a marinara sauce. Chicken, beef, beans or cheese can be added later. Freezes well.
Note from the Contributor: I have tried the above sprinkled on boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the crock pot and it is delish!
