Pizza-Flavored Pasta Sauce

• 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
• 1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
• 2 packages (3-1/2 ounces each) sliced pepperoni
• 3/4 cup chopped green pepper
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 7 cups meatless spaghetti sauce
• 1 can (2-1/4 ounces) sliced ripe olives, drained
• 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
• Hot cooked pasta

1. In a large skillet, cook sausage, mushrooms, pepperoni, pepper and onion over medium heat until sausage is no longer pink, breaking up sausage into crumbles; drain. Stir in spaghetti sauce, olives and Italian seasoning.
2. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 10-12 minutes or until heated through. Serve over pasta.
3. Freeze cooled sauce in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally.
