For as long as I can remember, even back into childhood we have had spaghetti at least once a week for dinner. My kids are grown up and gone off to college, but old habits die hard. My wife and I decided it was time to have spaghetti so I decided to cook one of my son’s favorite spaghetti sauce recipes. (Blogchef.net). This recipe is simple and delicious and once we tried it; it has became one of our favorites. For this meal we added hot butter milk biscuits, it also goes great with garlic toast. Enjoy
