This dish is cooked in one dish is the microwave so clean up is easy. I like to serve it over egg noodles so the kids think they are just eating pasta with a red sauce.

1 Cup sliced mushrooms
3/4 Cup sliced zucchini
1/2 Cup chopped onions
1/2 Cup chopped green bell pepper
2 Garlic cloves, minced
1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
16 Ounces tomato sauce
1/4 Cup red wine

1/2 Teaspoon salt
1/2 Teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 Teaspoon pepper
12 Ounces wide egg noodles
Grated parmesan cheese
