Extra Meaty Spaghetti Sauce

This is an old family recipe. My grandma used to make it and it is the best sauce I have ever had. No restaurant or bottled sauce will ever compare. The sauce takes a long time to cook but it freezes very well. I break mine down into family meal size tupperware and freeze for a quick, easy, homemade meal, pull it out of the freezer to thaw before you leave for work.Submitted by: FEFERNATOR

This was great, so easy to make and the kids loved it and thanked me for making them a "special dinner"! Tasted great - cheesy, yummy and filling. I used ~16oz pasta and ~3cups pasta sauce and it made a LOT - my fam of 4 ate almost 1/2 for dinner. Big hit, will be in regular dinner rotation. Thanks! - 8/5/09
