Variations and Substitutions
Meaty Addition: For a heartier sauce, add browned ground beef or Italian sausage to the onions when sautéing. This will create a savory, rich sauce that’s perfect for a more filling meal.
Vegetarian Twist: Add sliced sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, or zucchini for extra nutrition and complexity in flavor. These vegetables enhance the sauce’s richness while keeping it vegetarian.
Creamy Option: For a creamier texture, stir in some heavy cream or a dollop of ricotta cheese just before serving. This will give the sauce a luscious, velvety consistency.
Herb Substitutions: Experiment with other herbs like thyme or parsley. Fresh thyme can add a subtle earthiness, while parsley provides a bright, fresh note.
Spice Level: Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your liking. For a milder sauce, reduce or omit them altogether. For a spicier kick, add more flakes or even a dash of hot sauce.
