AIYAHH IT TASTED LIKE SPAGHETTI WITH MOLASSES SO GUD SO GUD WAT TO DO WAT TO DO?? Pros: STUFF
I made this meat sauce following the recipe to the letter and it was delicious but seemed to be lacking a little something. The second time I made it I substituted ground bison for the beef added another stalk of celery and some 'seasoning peppers' (a small mildly piquant pepper grown in the Caribbean) chopped up a box of shitake mushrooms and added those at the last minute with the parsley. A little extra kosher salt and some fresh ground black pepper -- and the meat sauce sang to my taste buds! I would like to know what the nutritional results of these changes were but this is the way I will make it from now on.
Delicious Easy and Extra Veggies! I love this recipe! I've been using this one for a few months now and people keep telling me how good it is. I've put in onions instead of the celery if I don't have celery on hand and it works just as well. First of all the addition of the veggies is healthier you eat a little more of them and a little less meat. Secondly it makes it cheaper too because you can use less meat to feed more people! It's very easy to make and very tasty... if you simmer it for longer the taste becomes a bit richer. Or if you're in a hurry or you like a lighter flavored sauce you can just stop when the recipe says. You can add in anything you like obviously but this is a really good basic recipe! Highly recommended! Pros: easy cheap and healthy Cons: None really
Great Taste & Super Simple My husband wasn't sure about eating the carrots and celery in this recipe but the sauce turned out great! We always make our own pasta sauce because the pre-made sauces have too much sodium and not enough taste. So this was a nice change from our usual pasta sauce we make. It was nice to add some other veggies in the sauce. We will make this recipe again soon.
make it even more healthy! Every time I use ground beef to cook I always cook it first and then drain the fat out of it (even though I buy 93% lean)! I did that with the recipe as well and it was just as good! I simmered it a little longer towards the end so the flavors had more time to mix! Yummy! Pros: easy
I made this last night. I didn't have parsley onion or carrots but I added coarsely chopped bell peppers (all colors) onion powder black pepper and mushrooms. I was very surprised at the consistency of it. I didn't drain the meat but I will next time. It was good but we refrigerated it to use tonight - I'm betting it will taste even better after sitting for 24 hours. Thank you!
DELICIOUS! This meal is delicious! I made the sauce exactly as the recipe calls for except I used salt-free Mrs. Dash table blend instead of salt to cut back on sodium. I used Hunt's no salt added tomatoes. I picked the perfect wheat pasta - Healthy Harvest. It was quick and easy to make perfect for a weeknight. And with a salad perfect for company! Pros: Healthier than a jar health wheat pasta easy to make Cons: NULL
I never make my own pasta sauce (canned is so easy) but this was a nice change from "the usual" and still very easy. Loved the flavor. Will definitely make again.
So easy! So flavorful! My better half LOVES meat sauce but canned meat sauce never does the trick. So I came across this recipe and it was very delicious. Perfect for a weeknight meal when there's not a lot of time.
