I can however, make a FEW things that are a) edible and b) worth having again.
One that tops the list (of probably a total of four things) is spaghetti sauce. Yes, I know, EVERYONE can make spaghetti sauce, but I have the recipe that was passed down from my Grandmama and mom and will stomp on any Olive Garden recipe.
So now, I will share (because I'm nice like that):
You'll need:
1 pound (or more if you prefer) LEAN ground beef
1/2 chopped jumbo sweet onion
1 can of Hunt's tomato sauce
1 small can of Hunt's tomato paste
1/2 jar of Prego Roasted Garlic & Herb sauce
(you can choose any, this is just my fav)
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
I'm apparently a McCormick spokesperson....
Oregano
(i LOVE oregano)
1 bay leaf
and lastly, salt and pepper
So, what to do now you say?
- brown meat and chopped onion together in a dutch oven; drain
- combine tomato sauce, paste, Prego, and all spices together
- judge your spice amounts based on your preference (i'm heavy on the oregano!)
- stir, cover and simmer for 1-2 hours
Don't forget to pair it up with whole grain noodles!
So now you know! Happy cooking!
