She prepares it with meat usually but it doesn't need it. I find that the meat greatly enhances it though. The beauty is how simple it is, brown some ground beef with diced garlic onion and red and green peppers. add blanched tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, your favorite herbs and spices, salt and pepper, and a crap ton of sugar.

If you've never added sugar to your sauce its time to try it, IMMEDIATELY!!
Sorry man, sugar has absolutely no place in spaghetti sauce. If you like it, great, but it just doesn't belong, IMO.

I have added sugar before. Also dehydrated powdered zucchuni as well.

Sugar works well in homemade pizza sause, but depending on what you are looking for, can be ok spagetti sauce.
If you want to sweeten your pizza sauce, honey works the best. I know night flight pizza wasn't open very long but I think they had the best pizza in BG, and their sauce was made with honey.
Yeah right girl!

Oorah!

All of these recipes sound really good. I'm inspired now to try out one of my own.

When I have time to make my own sauce, I use most of this recipe. I prefer fresh basil. Usually a 12 oz can of paste, since the recipe doesn't give sizes. I don't add salt or pepper. That can be individually added to one's plate.

I like to cook up italian sausage. After it has cooked for awhile, cut the rope sausage into bite size pieces, and add to the sauce after it is fully cooked.
