Ingredients
1/2 pound 93% ground beef1/2 pound 93% ground turkey1 large (2 cups) zucchini, grated or sliced1 large (2 cups) yellow/summer squash, grated or sliced1/2 cup chopped green pepper1 cup chopped white onion2 T minced garlic28 oz can no salt added Diced Tomatoes12 oz can tomato paste2 cup water (more or less to desired consistency)1 Tablespoon Black pepper2 Tablespoons Oregano1 Tablespoon Basil1/4 cup raisins6 oz burgundy wine
I prefer using a slow cooker, but can be cooked on stovetop (about 1 hour) or in 300* oven (about 3 hours)
Brown ground turkey and ground beef. Rinse and drain. Add onions, garlic, green pepper, black pepper, oregano and basil. Cook until onions just turn translucent. Pour contents into slow cooker (or large oven pan). Stir tomato paste and water together - add more water until desired consistency - I like it a little stiffer than tomato sauce, about 2 cups water. Add to slow cooker. Add Diced tomatoes, mushrooms, raisins, zucchin and squash. Stir together. Cook in slow cooker on low for 6 hours (or 300* oven 3 hours - can turn down lower. Or, cook on stovetop for 1 hour. I prefer slow cooker.) Stir occasionally. 1 hour before done, add 6 oz burgundy wine.
Serve over noodles, or rice for a change.
Serves 8.

An okay sauce except for the fact that there is way too much black pepper. I cut it to half and it was still too peppery. Also the recipe needs salt and the ingredients do not list mushrooms however, they are in the instructions with the zuchini and squash? I would not make it again. - 6/27/09
