This is the best meat sauce Iâve ever tried. Itâs economical, timely and absolutely delicious. I often prepare batches for new moms because it can be kept in the freezer for future meals. Try it with ground chicken instead of beef, if you prefer. âAdalia Schweitzer, Hamilton, Ontario Ingredients:
1/2 pound lean ground beef (90% lean) |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1/2 cup chopped green pepper |
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic |
1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce |
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste |
1 tablespoon sugar |
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano |
hot cooked spaghetti |
Directions:
1. Crumble beef into a 2-qt. microwave-safe dish. Add the onion, green pepper and garlic. Cover and microwave on high for 5-6 minutes or until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, stirring frequently; drain.
2. Stir in the tomato sauce, tomato paste, sugar, vinegar, salt, basil and oregano. Cover and microwave at 70% power for 6-8 minutes or until heated through, stirring once. Serve with spaghetti. Yield: 3 cups.
