Cooking dinner

okay, just a warning to anyone who is following, I will be posting more then once or even twice a day so beware!

Tonight for dinner we had spaghetti. We had no sauce. So i automatically thought "I'll make my own." Thanks to my mothers over prepare-itve-ness we had an extra can of plain tomato sauce in the pantry from when we made chili a few weeks ago. And this is what came out of it. A whole blog post about spaghetti sauce :) On the bright side, I got a new recipe out of it!


Homemade spaghetti sauce:

First you're gonna brown the ground beef in about 2 tablespoons of butter {yumm}.




While thats cooking your gonna mix {in a separate bowl}, your tomato sauce. Your Italian seasoning and your garlic. {a little salt and pepper, red pepper flakes, and a teaspoon of sugar.}



                                                            
                                             Remove from meat from heat and pour in sauce.
 

 


                                                 {Sorry but these were taken on an iPod. My camera died :(}


Then, let it sit and bubble on the back of the stove until you are ready to eat!
