QUICK EASY GREAT SPAGHETTI SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Dice onion, green pepper, mushrooms, and celery into similar sized pieces. Place on a plate.
• 2. In a large pot, pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add italian seasonings, salt, pepper and garlic stirring for two to three minutes.
• 3. Add diced green pepper and celery and cook for two minutes. Then add onion and mushrooms and cook until tender. You may want to turn the temperature down a bit while you're working on the next step.
• 4. While the vegetables are cooking, brown the hamburger in a skillet. When done add to the large pot.
• 5. This next step can be done two ways. My preference is to remove the italian sausage from the casings and brown in the same skillet that I cooked the hamburger in. You can also brown the italian sausage in the casings and cut into bite size pieces when done. Either way you choose, once the sausage is cooked place it in the large pot with the hamburger, vegetables and seasonings and stir to incorporate all the flavors.
• 6. Add Prego spaghetti sauce. Use any flavor. I like to mix them up using traditional, meat and chunky vegetable. You can't go wrong! Simmer on low heat for 30 minutes.
• 7. Here's a couple of tips. 1. If you use fresh herbs be sure to use less since the flavor is much more robust. 2. If your spaghetti sauce is a little tart, add two teaspons of sugar. It will cut the acid in the tomato sauce. 3. When I use fresh herbs, this is what I typically put in the sauce: rosemary, basil, oregano, dill and thyme. For the rosemary and dill, run the branch between your fingers to remove the rosemary and add to pot. Basil should be diced along with the oregano and dill. 4. You can freeze the spaghetti sauce in plastic containers or freezer bags. Be sure to lay the bags flat in the freezer. They will defrost very quickly this way and take up less room. 5. This sauce can be use for spaghetti, lasagna, beefaroni, stromboli....all kinds of dishes!

QUICK WEEKNIGHT HOMEMADE SPAGHETTI SAUCE

• Drain any excess grease.
• Stir in the tomato paste, basil, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, for about a minute, until the mixture smells fragrant.
• Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, brown sugar and soy sauce. Stir to combine.
• Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes (or as long as you like/need).
• Serve over hot, cooked noodles.

SPAGHETTI SAUCE (EASY ITALIAN STYLE WITH 6 INGREDIENTS)

Steps:

• Crush the garlic with the flat side of a knife.
• Bring the extra virgin olive oil (and lard, if using) to medium high heat, then add the garlic and chopped parsley.
• After a minute, add the ground beef and break up with a wooden spoon. Add some salt, and cook until it begins to dry up, then add the tomato passata/purèe/chopped tomatoes of your choice.
• If using Mutti, they tend to be thick, so add about ¾ cup (6 oz) of water or until the bottom line of the jar (shake to rinse) then add to the pot. If you're using another brand, rinse the can/jar with a little less water, unless it's very thick.
• Put the burner on high to bring the sauce to a simmer, and add more salt. Don't be afraid to add Kosher/sea salt as I can guarantee you will have much less sodium in this sauce than a jar of store-bought.
• Lower the heat so that the sauce simmers gently for about an hour, stirring occassionally (so that the sauce won't stick). Taste for seasoning after about 30 minutes, and add salt if needed.
• When the sauce is ready, check once again for seasoning. Add salt and pepper as desired, and a generous amount of fresh basil, torn into pieces.

THE EASIEST HOMEMADE SPAGHETTI SAUCE

Steps:

• Add oil to a skillet on the stove top. Heat to medium-high heat. Once pan is hot, add the ground meat. Saute the meat, stirring occasionally, until browned. If your turkey or beef isn't very lean you may want to drain the grease. (I find that isn't necessary when using 93% lean.)
• Reduce heat to medium low. Add canned crushed tomatoes, water, tomato paste, garlic, oregano, basil, parsley, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper to skillet with the meat. Stir to combine. Cover and gently simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until everything is heated through and flavors have married.
• Serve over your favorite pasta, spaghetti squash (see my recipe for Roasted Spaghetti Squash), or zoodles. You can even add it to the top of roasted veggies for a satisfying but light meal!
