Meat Sauce for Spaghetti
Here's a thick, hearty sauce that turns ordinary spaghetti and garlic bread into a filling feast. When I'm in a hurry, I make this slow cooker recipe in an electric frying pan instead. —Mary Tallman, Arbor Vitae, Wisconsin

About like the recipe we use, although we use tomatoes from the garden (skinned and frozen in Ziploc bags). They are naturally so flavorful and sweet that we don't add sugar, just a couple tablespoons of heavy cream to help thicken the sauce and mellow all the flavors. Very good.
I confess that I made a couple of changes. I used red wine instead of water, and I left out the carrots because I don't like the combination of carrots and tomatoes. Otherwise, delicious sauce! Great slow-cooker recipe!
I did try this recipe, and I only changed 1 thing - I substituted Swanson's Chicken Broth for the water. It was excellent!!

This was good, but I probably wont make again. To be fair, my kids strongly prefer meatballs, so they are tough critics. My husband and liked this, but prefer TOH Three-Meat spaghetti sauce recipe. I liked the slow cooker convenience and that it made enough for at least two meals for our family of four. It reheats well and is a solid recipe, despite not being our top sauce.
Great recipe! I use 1 lb ground turkey and 1 lb hot turkey Italian sausage instead of beef. Also, instead of water, I use red wine. This is our favorite recipe for spaghetti with meat sauce. :)
Very good... My family loved it and very convenient to have ready after a long day of work. Will definitely make again.
Great
Very good...the family loved it. I added a tad more sugar to cut the tomato acid, but that's it and that was just to suite a couple sensitive tummies :)
Very good.
