This fresh-tasting spaghetti sauce is a real crowd-pleaser. With a husband and 12 kids to feed every day, I rely on this flavorful recipe often. It tastes especially good in the summer made with fresh garden herbs. Anne Heinonen, Howell, Michigan

I altered the recipe a little to suit our tastes...I doubled the recipe, but only used 1 3/4 pounds of ground beef (that's all I had on hand), 2 cans (15 oz.) tomato sauce, 2 cans (14 1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained and 12 oz. tomato paste. I did not change (other than doubling) the spices. Was not sweet like some jarred sauces, but I did not think it was too sour either.

Wow, finally an easy and flavorful weeknight spaghetti sauce! I did make a few adjustments: I used ground venison and doubled the garlic and herbs. I also added 2 teaspoons each of fresh parsley and fresh rosemary, set aside 1 teaspoon each of the fresh herbs and stirred them in just before serving - FANTASTIC! This would be a great recipe to make a large batch and freeze some for later.

It was too sour. I had to put much sugar to hide sour.

I am never buying sauce from the jar again!!! This was amazing! I doubled the recipe. Instead of using 2 pounds of hamburger, I used 1 pound of Italian Sausage and 1 pound of hamburger. OMG!!! Will most definately make this again!

This is an excellent sauce recipe. I made it just as the recipe said to, and my boyfriend LOVED it. He used to buy an expensive brand name sauce when he wanted spaghetti, but after trying this recipe, this is the only one he likes and will eat. Thank you for an excellent recipe.

This is an excellent recipe! I've been looking for a hearty, tasty spaghetti sauce to make whenever we have spaghetti and I think this is it. I did make a few changes though. Instead of using the 2 cans of tomato sauce I used canned diced tomatoes and tomato paste.

This is one of my favorite recipes for pasta sauce. I actually made this for a friend when she had a baby! I will make again and again!

Since trying this recipe, I never make spaghetti sauce any other way. My family loves this sauce! I always double it so we have plenty to reheat the next night. Very delicious!

Excellent flavor. The bowl was licked clean. I made the sauce without meat, froze it, then added the thawed sauce to the browned beef and put it in the crock pot on low about 4 hours before serving.

I use a mix of sweet and spicy sausage for the meat, instead of ground beef, and it's makes all the difference in this recipe.
