Best I Ever Had Spaghetti Sauce

The seasonings give it the best flavor!

Ingredients:

  • 2 lb. ground meat (turkey, beef or Italian sausage)
  • 2 large onions, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 cup celery, chopped
  • 1 cup green pepper, chopped
  • 1 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 large carrot, grated
  • 2 large cans tomato puree
  • 2 large cans tomatoes
  • 1 small can tomato paste
  • 1 bottle burgundy wine (dry), approx. 2 cups
  • 2 Tbsp. dried basil
  • 1 tsp. allspice
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 bay leaves

Directions:

Brown meat and garlic; drain well. Saute vegetables, except carrot, in olive oil. Combine everything and simmer about 3-4 hours, stirring frequently. Chill overnight to set the flavors and serve the next day. This recipe makes enough sauce for 4 to 6 meals. Freeze in heavy duty zipper bags.

Servings: 20-30
Time:30 Minutes Preparation Time
3-4 Hours Cooking Time
