Homemade beats canned any day of the week, and spaghetti sauce is no exception. Slow-cooked tomatoes with red wine and spices make a sauce with deep flavor that no store-bought sauce can match.
2 cans (28 ounce size) crushed tomatoes
1 can (12 ounce size) tomato paste
1/2 cup red wine
3 cups water
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
Place all ingredients into crockpot and cook on HIGH for 5 hours - if longer, turn pot down to a lower setting (especially if you have one of the newer ones that tends to boil the sauce rather quickly).
Serve with spaghetti, tortellini, or other pasta, along with grated Parmesan or Romano cheese, if you like.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
Make your mornings a little less hectic with these overnight breakfast recipes. Prep the night before and enjoy a warm, comforting meal in the morning.
