Homemade Spaghetti Sauce

My kids (and myself) prefer this spaghetti sauce to anything store-bought. While the cooking process is long, the result is worth the wait! Your kitchen will smell wonderful for an entire morning or afternoon! I usually quadruple the recipe and freeze the excess. If you prefer meat sauce, you can brown 1 pound of ground beef and 1 large onion sliced thin, add 1 tsp. salt and sprinkle of parsley, then add to the sauce while cooking. — posted by tammyz

Donofrio Sunday Gravy

This “gravy” aka tomato/pasta sauce, is the sauce I grew up on. I am Italian, and many Italians make their sauce in many ways. I am a big fan of letting the natural flavors come through without adding sugar, etc. So, there will be no adding of sugar at all. This sauce is slightly sweet, and truely delish! After the gravy has been cooking for a few hours, dip some italian bread or a slice of mozzerella in to taste…you’ll be glad you did!!! (you will need a HUGE pot for this!) (some of these ingredients I never measure, so as the sauce cooks, keep tasting and add ingredients as needed) ***(This sauce FREEZES VERY WELL…) — posted by Erin101378
