Add new field in WordPress Menu to output in theme

Is there a simple class or function to extend the WordPress default menu items with new custom fields?

For example, when you go to Appearance - Menus, add a new menu and drag/drop an item to your menu, that actual item has few hidden fields that can be enabled from Screen Options:

My question is: how to add another custom field there? Like a background field to write the text there and output it in my custom theme like we output the title and description:

<?php echo $navItem->description; ?>

Changed the html code live on the admin page, so you can catch my idea on what I want to do.

enter image description here

Thanks!
