Cook down until the mushrooms have released all their water. Add one packet of Denny Tomato & Mushroom Pasta Sauce and 2 bay leaves. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium sized oven proof casserole and half a packet of Denny Tomato & Mushroom Pasta Sauce. Spread across the bottom of the dish.
