I received this recipe from my sister-in-law and use it all the time. The addition of pepperoni and cinnamon makes it extra special. My family says it's the best spaghetti sauce ever! Wendy Prevost, Cody, Wyoming Ingredients:
1-1/2 pounds ground beef |
1-1/2 pounds johnsonville® mild ground italian sausage |
3 cans (28 ounces each) stewed tomatoes |
3 cans (6 ounces each) tomato paste |
1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce |
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced |
2 large onion, chopped |
3 medium carrots, finely chopped |
1 medium green pepper, chopped |
1 cup water |
2 packages (3 ounces each) sliced pepperoni, diced |
2 tablespoons sugar |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
2 teaspoons italian seasoning |
2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
2 bay leaves |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional |
