This will show you the way to make your own tomato based spaghetti sauce that includes meat. You can also leave out the meat ingredients for a completely vegetarian meal.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 28 oz can diced tomatoes
  • 6 oz can tomato paste
  • 1 lb hamburger or italian sausage (optional)
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 small onion (diced)
  • 1 small green bell pepper (diced)
  • 1/2 can mushrooms or 1/4 package fresh mushroom (diced)
  • 1/8 cup brown sugar
  1. Step 1

    Brown the meat of your choosing, and drain. If you want to leave the meat out, start with step two.

  2. Step 2

    Mix diced tomatoes, and tomato paste in small bowl. In a skillet, sautee onion, mushroom, bell pepper, and garlic.

  3. Step 3

    Add in tomato mixture, simmer over medium-high heat for 20 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add brown sugar, simmer 15-20 minutes until heated through.

  5. Step 5

    Serve over pasta topped with cheese.

Tips & Warnings
  • The brown sugar will cut down the acidity of the tomatoes, making the taste more derisable.
  • Do not boil the sauce, as splatters will create messes.
