BUDDY CIANCI'S MARINARA SAUCE
This makes a nice base for meat sauce, pink sauce, or clam sauce. Vincent "Buddy" Cianci is the former mayor of Providence, R.I. He is credited with the revitalization of Downtown Providence and Federal Hill (Italian neighborhood of R.I.). He is also known for his criminal activity. He was convicted of racketeering in 2002 and was sentenced to 6 years in prison. His marinara sauce is sold all over R.I. and the proceeds from sales goes to a scholarship fund that has helped more than a hundred Providence students go to college.

Steps:
- Heat large, deep sided pan on medium to medium high heat.
- Coat bottom of pan with a couple tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.
- Heat a large pot of water on high until boiling for the pasta.
- Once the oil starts to ripple but before it starts smoking, dump in the onions, mushrooms and red pepper flakes. Stir the pan occasionally.
- Once the onions start to soften and the mushrooms brown (about 5-7 minutes), season with salt and stir the pan.
- Now add the bell pepper and zucchini and stir the pan occasionally.
- Once the pepper and zucchini begin to soften, add in the garlic and season again with salt continuing to stir the pan occasionally.
- At this point, the pot of water should be boiling. Season the water liberally with salt and add the pasta. Cook to al dente.
- Once the garlic is very fragrant, stir in the ground beef and break it up into little pieces.
- Continue to cook until meat is browned all the way through.
- Stir in the marinara sauce. It will be pretty thick, so add in about 1/2 cup of pasta water to thin.
- Bring sauce to a boil, then cover, reduce heat and let simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Drain the pasta and put in bowls.
- Once the sauce is done, pour over the pasta and then add some parmigiano cheese if you'd like!

MAGIC BULLET SPAGHETTI SAUCE (MARINARA)
This recipe for Im"meat"iate Spaghetti Sauce (Marinara)is posted from the Magic Bullet manual for a photo demo in the Kitchen & Gadgets Forum here on Food.com. I have abbreviated the instructions slightly for clarity. Note that this recipe calls for RAW meat. It's then cooked with the sauce in the microwave, but pre-cooking the meat in the Bullet cup and then proceeding with the recipe is also acceptable. Be sure to reduce the cooking time though.
