Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 lb bacon
3 (28 oz) cans whole tomatoes
3 (6 oz) cans tomato paste
5 tsp dried basil
5 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp dried thyme
3 bay leaves
1 tbsp salt
pepper
1 cup water

Directions:

Brown bacon. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon (save this for another use, like a salad topping).
Saute onions and garlic in bacon fat until soft. Add ground beef and brown.
Crush whole tomatoes, with juice, with your hands. Add to the pot.
Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil.
Lower the heat and simmer for at least one hour. I cover the sauce partially with a lid and simmer 2-3 hours. Check to see if you need to add more water (or wine).
Enjoy!
