Today was a holiday for us - so I was able to spend a little more time preparing our dinner - however, we still spent less than an hour getting everything put together. We made dinner at my mom's house and enjoyed an evening of House!! I know some of you will wonder why we don't use canned spaghetti sauce, however for spaghetti, once you make this VERY EASY SAUCE, you will not go back - I promise!!
Homemade Spaghetti Sauce
1lb hamburger
1/2 green pepper chopped
1 small onion chopped
mushrooms sliced (optional)
2 tsp pre minced garlic
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
salt/pepper
season salt
Brown hamburger with above ingredients until no longer pink. DrainAdd the following to meat mixture:
1 can diced tomatoes
1 8oz can tomato sauce
1 can condensed tomato soup (sounds strange - but trust me!)
1/4 c ketchup (another trust me!)
1/4c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 c. water
Let all ingredients simmer until you get your noodles cooked (about 20 min.)
We served this with a nice green salad.
The Verdict: My family loves this meal - in fact we rarely have leftovers. My son, who does not like mushrooms or green pepper, eats this and doesn't complain. I know some of the ingredients seem a little weird, but it makes for a very nice sauce. I hope you all enjoy!
