Background Story:

My all time favorite dish to make is spaghetti with meat sauce. It’s super simple, easy to make, and pretty quick as well! It’s allll in the flavor of the meat. I haven’t found anything as good as the sauce I’ve made… change my mind!

Recipe:

Ingredients:

  • Olive Oil
  • 1 Onion
  • 5 – 10 Cloves of Garlic (you can never have too much!!! :D)
  • 1 lb Ground Beef
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 32 oz your choice of Tomato or Marinara Sauce
  • Noodles/Pasta of your choice
  • Optional: Italian seasoning, veggie like spinach or broccoli

Instructions:

  1. Preheat and oil pan on low heat
  2. Dice onion and garlic, sauté until onions are translucent
  3. Add ground beef on medium to high heat and stir all ingredients together
  4. Salt and pepper to taste
  5. You can add Italian seasoning as well if you’d like
  6. Stir until beef is browned, adding salt and pepper again, to taste
  7. Add tomato sauce and mix all ingredients in pan
  8. Cover and let simmer while you boil water and make noodles. Remember: the noodles keep cooking after you strain them! Take them out right before they seem done!
  9. EXTRA: I like to add in spinach or broccoli to add color and make it a little more healthy! 
  10. Enjoy!
