If you hate pasta sauce from a jar or a can that tastes like ketchup as much as I do, then this is a simple way to make some great pasta, or have an awesome base for a home made lasagna(coming soon!). This is a simple sauce that basically does all the work for you while it simmers. Another great part? You can pair the red wine with your meal, since you are using it to cook anyways. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 ½ lb 92% lean ground beef
3 cloves Garlic
2 yellow onions
1 Tb Black Pepper
1 Tb Salt
1 Tb Sugar
1 Tb Oregano
½ lb sliced Bella mushrooms
26.5 oz Can of tomato sauce
1 c red wine
Prep:
Mince your garlic and dice your onions.
Cooking:
Put a little bit of Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a large sauce pan. Heat up oil and add onions, and garlic, sauté for about 5-6 mins. Add your ground beef and brown it while mashing it so you get fine pieces of beef. Once the meat is browned add your tomato sauce and oregano. Once all that is mixes through, add your pepper, sugar, salt, wine, and mushrooms. Mix well folding your mushrooms into the sauce. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer, cover and let simmer for about an hour. Serve over pasta with a salad, and protein (chicken, fish, pork, etc) if desired.
