How to Make My Good Spaghetti

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and saute for 2 minutes until softened.
  2. Remove onions and set aside in a small bowl.
  3. Add 1 pound of 93% lean ground beef to the saucepan. Brown the beef, breaking it up with a spoon, and drain off any excess grease.
  4. Return the sauteed onions to the saucepan with the browned ground beef.
  5. Stir in 2 (24 ounce) jars of your favorite spaghetti sauce. Add 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  6. Bring the sauce to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  7. While the sauce simmers, cook 8 ounces of thin spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.
  8. Serve the spaghetti topped generously with the meat sauce.
  9. Serve immediately with a large slice of crusty, buttered garlic bread. Enjoy!
  10. Optional: Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
