Mushroom Spaghetti Marinara is a quick and easy recipe featuring Fresh Tomato Marinara Sauce and mushrooms in less than 20 minutes.

Remember my Fresh Tomato Marinara Sauce from earlier this week? I just had to share one of my go-to quick meals to go with it.

Here is Mushroom Spaghetti Marinara using sliced mushrooms and cooked spaghetti tossed with a marinara sauce. It is dinner on the table in less than 20 minutes.

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients needed to make Mushroom Spaghetti Marinara.

Dried spaghetti. You can use any pasta you want other than spaghetti.
Mushrooms. I love using mushrooms because they have a unique savory flavor known as umami, and a dense, meaty texture when cooked. You can absolutely omit this completely to make plain Spaghetti Marinara or alternatively use other ingredients like meat and vegetables.
Marinara sauce. Make the Fresh Tomato Marinara Sauce in advance in bulks, then store it in the fridge or freezer so that you can make this recipe at any time.
Fresh basil leaves. Add chopped fresh basil leaves for garnish and add an extra flavor to the sauce.
