2. Brown the Meat and Vegetables: In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the lean ground beef over medium heat until it’s no longer pink. Add the chopped onions, green peppers, red sweet peppers, celery, and mushrooms. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the meat is fully browned.

3. Seasoning: Once the meat and vegetables are cooked, add minced garlic, dried thyme, and cayenne pepper to the pot. Stir well to incorporate the flavors.

4. Add Spaghetti Sauce: Pour in your favorite spaghetti sauce, stirring to combine all the ingredients evenly. The sauce will marry with the meat and vegetables, creating a deliciously rich base.

5. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the sauce and add salt to your liking. If you prefer a spicy kick, sprinkle in more cayenne pepper to elevate the heat.

6. Simmer: Cover the pot and let the sauce simmer over low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Skim off any excess grease that rises to the surface during cooking.

7. Final Touch: After simmering for about an hour, the sauce will have developed its robust flavors. Adjust the consistency and seasoning as needed.

8. Serve: Ladle the chunky spaghetti sauce over your favorite cooked noodles. For an extra touch of flavor, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top before serving.
