Ingredients: 1 pound ground beef; 1 medium green pepper, chopped; 1 small onion, chopped; 2 garlic cloves, minced; 1-1/2 cups water; 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained; 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce; 1 tablespoon chili powder; 1 tablespoon grape jelly; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 6 ounces uncooked thin spaghetti, halved

I remember my grandma making this stovetop supper many times—we always loved granny's spaghetti! My husband and I now enjoy making this for our supper. You can easily substitute ground turkey for the ground beef if that's what you have on hand. —Jill Thomas, Washington, Indiana

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-1/2 cups water
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon grape jelly
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 ounces uncooked thin spaghetti, halved

Directions

In a Dutch oven, cook beef, green pepper, onion and garlic over medium heat until beef is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, 8-10 minutes, breaking up beef into crumbles; drain.
Add water, tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder, jelly and salt. Bring to a boil. Stir in spaghetti. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until spaghetti is tender, 6-8 minutes.

Test Kitchen tips

The chili powder adds a subtle southwestern flavor to this spaghetti dish.

Garnish each serving with your favorite taco toppings like a dollop of sour cream and chopped green onions.

Made this for dinner today and we really liked it! I used diced tomatoes with roasted garlic. Delicious and cleanup didn't take long.

This was good. Not overly spicy/seasoned but tasty. I would definately recommend for a quick one pot dinner but not if you are looking for a true spaghetti recipe.
