Spaghetti with Meat Sauce
user
Spaghetti has always been one of my favorite dishes. It's easy to make, and provides a delicious, filling meal. Everyone prefers their spaghetti sauce differently. Some like it to be just a tomato sauce, while others prefer large meatballs scattered throughout. Personally, I like my meat sauce somewhere in the middle. I love having lots of cooked ground beef mixed into the sauce, so you get chunks of meat in every bite.
This recipe is my grandmother's recipe, and is the recipe I have grown up with. With six kids, my grandmother sure knew how to cook a great meal... I wouldn't change a thing.
Ingredients
- 1 family size can of tomato soup
- 1 regular can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 small can of tomato sauce
- 1 small pkg Lawry’s Spaghetti sauce mix
- 1 pinch Italian seasoning
- 1 lb hamburger meat
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 tbsp sugar
- salt, pepper, garlic salt, to taste
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 12 oz spaghetti
- parmesan cheese (optional)
Cooking Directions
- Fry onion with hamburger meat and season with salt, pepper and garlic salt.
- In large pan, combine soups and tomato sauce.
- Add water, Italian seasoning and spaghetti mix.
- Add meat and simmer 30 min.
- Boil water in a large pot.
- Salt water, then add the spaghetti to the water.
- Boil for 8-10 minutes, or until al dente.
- Serve spaghetti topped with the meat sauce, with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese if you prefer.

that spaghetti looks like the best thing since slice bread. :) Why is the sauce an orange color.

It is delicious.
The sauce is a reddish-orange color partially because of the lighting when I took the pictures, and partially because of the ingredients - tomato sauce and soup is mixed with cream of mushroom soup, so the color is lightened a little.

Tomato and mushroom soup in spaghetti??? Yech! You may as well crack open a can of Spaghetti-O's and serve that to the entire family.

EC - Nah, this is much, much better than Spaghetti-O's. Although I certainly have nothing against them... I loved Spaghetti-O's as a child. :D
