Welcome Redbird, LO, this is a wonderful place to be---dogmom, we are always here if you need us---Speaking of needingLacey, CW, Charley--hold me up please--without realizing it Redbird put the knife through my heart "Italian Cook here Redbird", "the cheapest spaghetti sauce and add mushrooms etc.." Get rid of acid in tomato sauce by simmering the tomato sauce for a couple of hours.
Hey, Kelsie! I'm a so sorry for the cheapo spaghetti sauce, eh? Whattaya gonna do, I am from-a Oklahoma! A thousand and one apologies.
I am probably going to assault a lot of cook's with my peasantry slash bachelor style cooking. I am like Lacy, I learned to cook at an early age and have been cooking since around age 13.
I was one of the first boys to take cooking class in 9th grade. Took it for 4 years straight! I never use recipes or measure. My specialty is meat, MEAT, and MORE MEAT. I am known for having ONE ITEM for a meal and no sides or veggies in sight.
Funny here we go again ladies...to cut down on the acid in my tomato sauce (yes I make sauce not gravy) LOL I add a little sugar.
Actually, finding a good spaghetti sauce is near impossible, because both Don and I are diabetics. Pasta itself really raises our blood sugar and adding sugar to the sauce or having garlic bread really makes my sugar go up.
As a matter of fact, my eyes are affected and my vision get blurry when my sugar goes above 290.
RedBird-those jarred sauces are loaded with sugar.
You're better off making your own - easy and we can help. Marinara is the quickest easiest sauce. A thicker heartier gravy had beef, sausage,pork and slow cooked for 4-5 hrs.
You give yourself a double whammy with jarred sauce and pasta.
Glass trifle bowl (I use an old glass punch bowl).
Package of chocolate cake mix-made in a 9x13 pan, cooled, cut in squares.
Take the pieces of cake, cut cross-ways and put a layer in bottom of bowl.
Top with a layer of chocolate pudding.
Layer of Cool Whip
Layer of crushed Kit Kats.
Repeat layering cake,pudding,Cool Whip,KitKats and top with Cool Whip and more crushed KitKats.
Cover, refrigerate-best if made early in the day.
Serve with a BIG spoon to dig in.

OMG Lacey, Mr. BB will think I'm a genius if I fix that!!! I'm heading to the store to get some kitkats!!!!
Hmmmmm, maybe I'll wait and fix it for my 'Patio Party'!! We had our back porch enclosed last month and next week we're having a patio with a built-in firepit built. When it's finished, we're having a patio party here with some friends and Chocolate Lasagne would be perfect to go along with the 'smores!! Gotta break in the firepit by roasting marshmellows, right??
