I make my spaghetti sauce from scratch. It's very easy and is much yummier than canned. Canned is good for quick lunches, but letting it simmer all day is just a feast waiting to happen and your mouth will love you! I make a double or triple batch of the recipe below. This recipie is from Betty Crocker's Cookbook.
I served it today and it was a hit-again!
Italian Spaghetti
1 pound hamburger (Costco sells organic hamburger!)
1 large onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
1 clove garlic, crushed (I use the garlic chopped in a jar)
1 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon oregano
3/4 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon marjoram
1/4 teaspoon rosemary
1 bay leaf
1-8 oz can tomato sauce
1-6 oz can tomato paste
Another ingredient I'll add like I did today is Italian sausage. I take the links and cut each into four pieces or so and fry them up in olive oil. When they're done I place them on paper towels to soak up the fat and then add them to the sauce.
Also, use good spaghetti. Don't use store brand. I use the kind from Costco and it's from Italy.
Top it off with some freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
Yummy!!! that Spaghetti Sauce sounds really good, The best Spaghetti is Barilla, I've been told that by many Italians, enjoy your Sunday dinner.
