Have you tried whole wheat pasta? It is delish!
*I make this sauce to taste so the measurements are just approximations. Taste it as you go and add more of whatever it needs!
Spaghetti Sauce:
lots of good olive oil
1 med. onion
2 cloves garlic
2 carrots
1 stalk celery and or 1 green pepper (or go without)
2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon sugar
1 can crushed/puree tomatoes
ground beef
Salt & Pepper
Pasta:
Whole Wheat Penne noodles
boiling water
salt
Add a couple tablespoons of olive oil to heated pan. Chop and add onion. Add minced garlic, salt and pepper. Let it sweat together for a couple minutes over medium heat. Chop and add carrots/green pepper/ (and or) celery. Add more olive oil. Stir and Cook until the veggies are soft and turn golden brown (10-20 minutes). Next add tomatoes, italian seasoning, sugar and simmer for 20 minutes. Meanwhile cook beef in separate pan. Add cooked beef to the sauce mixture.
Cook pasta according to directions and combine with sauce. Top with parmesan and more olive oil (if you wish) and eat!
