Default Stretching pasta sauce

So I'm gonna make myself some pasta for dinner, but I realized that i don't have enough sauce. Does anyone have any suggestions for something I could add to get a little more pasta sauce?

If anyone says "more pasta sauce" or "ketchup" I'm finally going to throw my support behind [censored] and nominate you for a banning.

yea, i have had to do this before. Just stir it with the noodles for a few minutes. I mean, it's not as good but I think it's the best way for this situation.

Cream is good but I doubt you have that. You can thin it out a bit with a touch of the water you used to boil the pasta. Grilled veggies would bulk it up a little.

I don't have any cream, what about milk? I also have a little bit of alfredo sauce, although I don't know how good of an idea it would be to mix the two.

Ground beef if you've got it. Maybe some fried onions and garlic? Pasta is really tasteless so you're looking to add something flavorful...

I'm a lazy lazy man so if I had the alfredo sauce I would just sauce half the pasta with one sauce and half with the other.

I Don't think milk will cut it. Do you have any canned broth or anything like that?

I had some pepperoni from making pizza the other day, so I added that and left a little bit of the boiled water. Any othere thoughts?

Campbell's Chicken Noodle soup is about as close to canned broth as I'm gonna get.
