Savory Italian Spicy Sausage and Mushroom Pasta Man Sauce

So you might be wondering, what did you serve at Brent's Birthday Dinner? Well, I would tell you I made him a 'Man Pasta Sauce'. He loves spicy sausage and mushroom (not me). So I decided to make him something uniquely for him.
HE ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!
Said it was the best freakin' sauce he has ever had in his life!!!!!

Well, I would say it's a do over.

Here's the ingredients for you. Oh, and don't forget the red wine... so grown up!

Brown up the sausage, garlic, onions and mushroom. I decided to make a traditional sauce and this sauce. All the men chose this one and all the ladies chose the traditional sauce. Funny, eh!

Here's the final masterpiece. Really delicious for those who love those tastes and so delicious as a leftover too!
