This is a great recipe and easy to do. Not exactly sure how much a "jar of spaghetti sauce" since all jars are different sizes. I used about 5 cups, 20 ounces. Thanks for provide an yummy yet uncomplicated dish!

what vegetarian soup can I serve with this please?

This dish is not vegetarian unless you leave the meat out, but to balance the heaviness of the pasta, I'd serve a vegetable soup which is full of good nutrients and light. In oil, saute chopped onion and carrot, add any vegetables you like, for example: peas, green beans, corn, cauliflower, celery, and chopped potatoes. Add enough vegetable broth (or water) to cover the vegetables and simmer until potatoes are soft. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with parsley leaves. Let me know if you have any more questions :)
