Sauce Day

Spaghetti meat sauce all ready for the freezer after simmering all day. Our version: saute onions and garlic, then brown Italian sausage and hamburger. Add 4-7 cans of crushed tomatoes with Italian seasonings. Simmer all day. That's the key :)

Got Garlic?

Italian sausage, hamburger, three thinly sliced onions, 4 cans of crushed tomatoes and about 30 cloves of garlic. That'll do it. Brown the onions and meat and some minced garlic, then add tomatoes, basil and more garlic and simmer all day. I think that's the key to really good meat sauce, it has to simmer for hours and hours. Oh...and there has to be garlic. A lot! My husband cooked up a batch of sauce Sunday. We put it in the freezer in packages just the right size for a family dinner. We've got 8 meals ready to go for the next few months.
