I make this a lot and it always turns out nice. Hearty Spaghetti Sauce 1-1/2 pounds ground beef 1-1/2 pounds bulk Italian sausage 3 cans (28 ounces each) stewed tomatoes 3 cans (6 ounces each) tomato paste 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce 1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced 2 large onion, chopped 3 medium carrots, finely chopped 1 medium green pepper, chopped 1 cup water 2 packages (3 ounces each) sliced pepperoni, diced 2 tablespoons sugar 3 garlic cloves, minced 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning 2 teaspoons dried oregano 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 2 bay leaves 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional In a Dutch oven, cook beef and sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 2-3 hours or until sauce reaches desired consistency, stirring occasionally. Discard bay leaves. Serve immediately. Or cool and pour into jars; cover and refrigerate. Yield: 19 cups

4 tbsp. oil (from browned meat or olive oil) 2 lb. sausage or ground pork or beef or chicken 5-7 cloves garlic (more if you like it) 1 onion 1 1/2 tsp. oregano 1/4 tsp. marjoram 1/2 tsp. basil 1/4 tsp. thyme 1/4 tsp. pepper Dash and sprinkle salt Many mushrooms 1/2 c. grated carrots (if you like) 1-2 bell peppers 2 tbsp. Parmesan cheese, grated 72 oz. tomato sauce (many sm. cans or 2 lg. cans) 1 tsp. honey Fresh parsley Brown meat in skillet by tearing meat into small pieces in hot skillet, turning meat to cook all sides. Some oil will separate from meat during frying. In large pot or skillet used to cook sauce in, pour 4 tablespoons oil from meat. Add spice, onion and minced garlic to the heated oil, then stir in the remaining spices. Stir until onions get soft and garlic is a light golden brown (do not allow garlic to get too dark or it will be burned and bitter). Clean and chop many fresh mushrooms and add to skillet. Add carrots and chopped bell peppers, occasionally stirring as to saute evenly. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Add tomato sauce cans (cooked tomatoes) to skillet. Stir in drained browned meat. Cover pot and let it simmer for an hour, not boil. Make spaghetti pasta 15 minutes before serving preparing according to directions on package. It came from cooks.com
