Spaghetti Recipe

I have a really big love for food and cooking food. So I just wanted to share my favorite recipe for a nice spaghetti dinner with you. So here I go:

Ingredients Needed:
1lb ground beef (my preference lean)
1lb hot Italian sausage (I prefer ground or some times I just sliced them up if I get links)
Onions
Mushrooms
Green bell pepper
Garlic
Spaghetti noodles
Tomatoes for sauce
Thyme
Oregano
Any kind of spice or herb that you prefer in your pasta
Mozzarella cheese

Sauce: Take whole tomatoes boil them in water until the skins are easily to come off. Should not take longer than 5 minutes. Once done take tomatoes and mash them up with a potato masher or put them in blender. What ever you find more convenient for yourself. Add thyme, oregano, garlic and take an onion and grate half of it the sauce and put it on the stove top on simmer. Stir occasionally.

At this time add noodles to boil water and keep eye on them so they don't go to stringy.

Meat: Take sausage and ground beef cook them on stove top on number 3 add salt and the above seasonings to both meat types. Break up the ground beef up in small pieces as they cook. Do the same if you choose the have ground sausage. If you do not do your sausage that way and choose the links I find it tastes best if you slice them as thin as possible and fry them up in all the seasonings mentioned or whatever you prefer to use.  Break down meat occasionally.

Moving along to the rest of the ingredients, take your mushroom and slice them and dice them up. I like them tiny in cube like forms same goes with the green bell peppers. Put them both together in a bowl. I like to sit them soaking in olive oil or grape seed oil with all the seasonings and take your onion and grate that into the mushroom and bell pepper mixture and stir it around so the flavor get all through the ingredients.

By this time your noodles should be done so strain them out and put them back into pot. Also your meat should be done by this time. I like to add both meats in with all the grease from frying pan into the sauce. I find the grease holds lots of flavor and plays a big part in flavor since the meats were both seasoned. However that is optional if you want to use the grease left over. So add meat to sauce. Now that you have done so take the bowl mixture of mushrooms, green bell pepper and grated onion and put it onto a frying pan on low heat and just let it slowly cook. Once you have done so take a few cloves of garlic approximately two and grate them both into the frying pan. Than once all the mushrooms and bell peppers are cooked add all the contents from pan into sauce and allow sauce to simmer and absorb all the flavors.

Now that you have everything cooked just add desired amount of cheese either into the sauce and let it melt or just add it on after you plate your meal.
