That is true grand am. I have been with my husband for 24 years and he still won't share his spaghetti sauce recipe with me.

OK HERE IS AN EASY WAY.
4 CANS OF TOMATO SAUCE
2 CANS OF PETITE DICED TOMATOS
3 CANS OF WATER
2 POUNDS OF GROUND BEEF
A BIG CAN OR 2 SMALL CANS OF TOMATO PASTE
A LITTLE OREGANO OR ITALLIAN SEASONINGS TO TASTE AND A PINCH OR TWO OF SALT.
OK COOK YOUR MEAT AND DRAIN GREASE.
PUT IN LARGE POT ADD ALL INGREDIENTS AND LET SIMMER FOR ONE FULL HOUR.THE LONGER IT SIMMERS THE BETTER. AND LET ME TELL YOU LEFT OVERS THE NEXT DAY ARE EVEN BETTER. MMMMDELICIOUS

Most people with a Good Recipe want share this valuable information!

The key to my sauce is fresh everything. Fresh Basil, fresh oregano, freshly cracked black peppercorns, fresh veggies. Instead of ground beef, I brown sweet Italian sausage links in beer, butter and garlic until the casing is a nice golden brown...slice them and then finish sauteing them. Add to your marinara and it makes for a delicious sauce!

1lb groung beef browned
2 4oz tomato paste
2 tablespoons of mustard
2 cups of water
1 teaspoon of garlic salt
1 teaspoon of sugar
1 Teaspoon of pepper
1 teaspoon of chili powder
Add any veggies that you want


Simmer sauce for about 30 min then add meat. Let simmer another 20-25 min. Great sauce but be careful, can get hot!!!!

My husband makes the best spaghetti sauce. The only problem, he won't share his recipe with me. LOL!!! Our son has told him that he should can it and sell it. LOL!!!

Spaghetti Sauce

1 large can (28 ounces) tomatoes, broken up
2 cans (6 ounces each) tomato paste

Or use a stockpot and cook for 1 hour or more
Serve this sauce with spaghetti or other pasta, and pass the Parmesan!

Here is how I make mine...to me it's awhole lot better than the jar of sauce you buy. I make mine in big batches because I have a big family to feed, but you can cut the recipie in half.

2lbs hamburger
2 packets of McCormic Thick & Zesty spaghetti sauce mix
1 12 oz. can tomato paste
1 can diced tomaots
2 1/2 cups of water
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 onion chopped
2 tablespoons brown sugar
*you can throw in some italian seasoning or garlic if you wish*

Cook the hamburger, onion, and garlic together until hamburger is done.
(I use the c*ckpot for the sauce)
Combine the tomato paste, diced tomatos, brown sugar, water, and seasoning packets.
Then add in the hamburger, onions, and garlic and heat the sauce.

It's not very fancy or hard, but I just use a can of crushed tomatoes (or get whole and "crush" them yourself with your hands), italian seasoning, and sauted garlic. It's simple and healthier than bottled sauce. You can even buy crushed seasoned tomatoes.

Anyone got a good recipie?
