Spaghetti is another one of those staple meals that I am sure every family enjoys as part of their regular dinners. Sure you can open a bottle of sauce, but with a little extra time you can have an amazingly fresh tasting sauce.
This simple meatless spaghetti sauce does begin canned tomatoes to give you a quick and easy start, but with a few fresh ingredients along with some seasonings you have a simple but fresh tasting spaghetti sauce. The best part, it all comes together in 15 minutes.
I served this up with a side of cheesy garlic bread. You can find that recipe on the blog tomorrow.
