Spaghetti Sauce

"Learning how to make your own spaghetti sauce can be a wonderful thing. Just seems like you can adjust the ingredients as you like to taste them. This is the most amazing spaghetti sauce. I have made this with ground beef and switched it up using ground chuck and some mild sweet Italian sausage. Just scrumptious. Making your own marinara sauce allows you the opportunity to use garden fresh tomatoes if you are lucky enough to have a garden. If not, that is okay too, as jarred tomatoes are just fine. My husband is a critic of spaghetti. (It is his favorite meal). Each time he has it, he ranks who makes the best sauce. According to him, there must be enough sauce to for the meat and he loves adding extra sauce to his pasta. When I was first married, all I heard was how well his sister made her spaghetti sauce. Fast forward forty years; he loves my homemade sauce. But he still has a special place in his heart for her homemade sauce. "
