Spaghetti with an easy sauce

 Instead of opening a jar, try this easy  with meat sauce on a weeknight. Great on a  cold day.Serve with steamed broccoli or other greens, and a loaf of piping hot garlic bread. I prefer hot garlic bread for a side.

1 box of your prefered spaghetti noodles

4 minced gloves garlic

1 tablespoon itialian season

1 pound ground beef

1 can crushed tomatoes

1\4 cup parsley

1/2 teaspoon salt

and of course alter ingredients to your pleasing but I like the dish the Way It Is.

Directions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta until just tender, 8 to 10 minutes or according to package directions. Drain.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, carrot, and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is beginning to brown, 5 to 8 minutes.

Stir in garlic and Italian seasoning; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add beef and cook, stirring and breaking up with a spoon, until no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Increase heat to high. Stir in tomatoes and cook until thickened, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in parsley and salt.

Serve the sauce over the pasta, sprinkled with cheese. 

Enjoy!,!!
