    In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat; sauté onion, carrot, garlic, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and hot pepper flakes until liquid is evaporated (about 8 minutes). Add pasta sauce and 1 1/2 cups of water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and keep the sauce warm.
