Ingredients

Directions

Melt butter with olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir mushrooms in butter and oil until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in 1/4 cup red wine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until mushrooms are very dark and shrunken in size, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat a large pot over medium heat. Add ground beef, yellow onion, diced tomatoes, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and garlic to the pot; cook and stir until beef is completely browned, about 10 minutes. Season with oregano, basil, and rosemary.

Stir 3/4 cup red wine and tomato paste into beef mixture. Pour spaghetti sauce into the pot; stir. Bring to a simmer and continue cooking until flavors blend, 10 to 30 minutes. Serve over your favorite pasta and top with mushrooms.
