Friends will rave over it, too. Serve over pasta, and round out the meal with a simple salad and garlic bread. —Helen Rowe, Spring Lake, Michigan

My family will never eat any other type of spaghetti again - their quote. They loved it!

My picky family loved this sauce and so did I. It's nice and thick and full of flavor!

This was a delicious sauce. I love trying different spaghetti sauce recipes and this was one of my favorites! The consistency was great, not too thick, not too runny. I added some Emeril's Essence and Worcestershire sauce to the meat while browning it and had a red bell pepper so added that too, love peppers with Italian sausage. Added a little red wine and a bay leaf. I upped the basil and oregano to 1 tsp each. Served it with fresh shredded Parmesan and fresh minced parsley. I can't wait to eat the leftovers for lunch! So easy and my family loved it too, my son inhaled it!

Excellent sauce! Tasted great and was easy to make. Next time I make it I might change the ratio of sausage to beef to make it more even, or maybe a little more beef. Can't wait to make it again!
