Preparation

Method;
- Heat a large pot with 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add in the red peppers and red onion. Cook until peppers are soft and onions are translucent.
- Add in the garlic and mushrooms. Allow the mushrooms to release juices and fully cook down, about 5 minutes. In the last minute of cooking, add in the oregano and basil.
- Turn the heat to high and deglaze the pan with balsamic vinegar. Cook down the mixture for 2-3 minutes.
- Add in Knorr Italian Tomato Sauce, sugar & Knorr Chicken Stock Powder. Allow mixture to come to a boil, then turn heat to low. Plop in the parmesan, cover the pot with a lid, and let simmer for 2-3 hours (the longer it goes, the deeper the flavor will be).
- Finish with buffalo mozzarella and fresh sage
- Serve with tagliatelle pasta
