How do you fix spaghetti sauce that is too bland?

If you find that your spaghetti sauce is bland with little flavor, don’t be afraid to add extra salt and Italian seasonings. It if still needs a little something extra, try adding sauteed minced onions and bell peppers with a couple of tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. You can also add minced garlic and red pepper flakes for a zesty kick. Just play around with it until it has the depth of flavor that you desire.
