christmas in june tomato sauce

I made a simple tomato sauce tonight to go on top of whole wheat spaghetti. I chopped an onion, some garlic, about ten shrooms, and a couple of handfuls of spinach. I cooked the onion, then the shrooms. Then, when the water had boiled and the ten-minute pasta had started, I added the garlic, stirred briefly, added the spinach, stirred until just wilted, and added some chunky tomatoes (Muir Glen organic). I cooked the mixture until everything was hot, then turned the heat off on the sauce. Oh, and I added some soy sauce -- what's tomato sauce without a little soy added in?

The red tomato sauce, flecks of green spinach, and white garlic were very pretty. And the dish was tasty.
