Preparation

Step 1

In a large saucepan, heat 3 Tbsp oil over medium high heat; add mushrooms and onions and saute until light brown. Remove from pan and set aside.

Heat remaining oil in saucepan and brown spaghetti over medium low heat. (Be careful - it browns quickly) Remove pan from heat and add mushrooms and onions back into pan. Add remaining ingredients, mixing well.

Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 20 more minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.

NOTE:
Freezes well.
