Introduction

One recipe that tastes better when served the 2nd time around. This some what spicy red sauce sauce has a ‘nice tang’ but you can omit tomatoes w/Green Chilies for an additional can of regular for a milder taste. I usually double this recipe and freeze for great healthy and fast meals at a later date. One recipe that tastes better when served the 2nd time around.

Ingredients

    ½ lb extra lean ground beef
    1 medium onion, chopped
    2 14.5 oz. can of diced tomatoes
    1 14.5 oz. can of diced tomatoes w/Green Chilies
    2 6 oz. can of tomato sauce
    1 6 oz. can of tomato paste
    1 stalk of Celery, finely chopped (about ¼ cup)
    1 tsp. Basil
    1 tsp. Oregano
    1 tsp. Italian Seasoning
    ¼ tsp. Seasonal Salt
    1 tsp. Minced Garlic

Directions

Brown meat and chopped onions together in skillet until meat is fully cooked. Drain grease and rinse with hot water if necessary. (By rinsing meat you remove more than 50% of the fat contents if not using extra lean ground beef.) In large cooking pot add remaining ingredients then add in ground beef well drained. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours, stirring only occasionally. This really needs 2 hours to cook in order for the flavor to come out. You can cook and simmer this in a Crockpot for 4+ hours for convenience. This recipe makes about 8 ~ 1 cup servings.
