Ingredients
  

  • 1 16 oz. package frozen cooked mussels
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 1/2 cup wine red or white
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes or 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 lemon juiced

Instructions
 

  • Put a skillet on at medium high. Don't thaw out the mussels. Just dump them in the skillet along with the frozen liquid from the bag. Add the marinara sauce, the lemon juice, red pepper flakes  and the wine. Stir everything together.
  • Let the liquids come up to a fast simmer. Then lower the heat to just maintain the simmer. Stir it a few times as it all warms up. About 10 minutes.
  • I multi tasked and put a pot of water on for the pasta and threw together some caprese salad while the mussels were doing their thing.
    Serve it up and enjoy. It is real quick, easy and very good.
