This is the spaghetti sauce my mom has
made since I was a child and has always been one of my favorite foods. My mom
never really wrote down her recipe, and I never did until now. I always just
watched her make it and then started making it on my own. So, she may add a few
different spices, but this is basically it.
Spaghetti
Sauce
(With Meat)
Ingredients
1.5 lbs lean
ground beef
1 medium
onion, chopped
2 tsp.
garlic powder or minced garlic
1 Tbsp.
Italian seasoning
¼ tsp.
pepper
½ tsp. salt
2 (15 oz.)
cans tomato sauce
1 (6 oz )
can tomato paste
1/2 cup water
1 tsp. sugar
Directions
In a Dutch
oven or large saucepan, add beef and onion and cook until beef is browned.
Drain, then put back into pot. Add the garlic powder, Italian seasoning,
pepper, and salt. Cook 5-10 more minutes. Add tomato sauce, tomato paste,
water, and sugar and stir well. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer on low
for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Serve over
hot cooked spaghetti noodles.
If you don't have a fresh onion you can use minced onion. If you like tomato chunks, you can add a can of diced tomatoes. I have also added green peppers before to make it spicier. It is easily adapted to make however you like.
