Field Grade Spaghetti Sauce
SUBMITTED BY:
QUIKSMYLE
"The delightful surprise ingredient in this sauce is cinnamon, and I guarantee that it's absolutely delicious! In the military, the term "field grade" is for Colonels and Generals, as in "He's a field grade officer." That's how this recipe got it's name...by being the cream of the crop! It's one of the many recipes I've accumulated as a military wife for almost 30 years. This sauce freezes well."

This is thick and very good. I like a stronger tomato flavor, so I added a can of tomato paste. Smells wonderful, too!

This is a wonderful recipe! If you like things with a unique flair, try this sauce. My husband loved it. I bet it would make a superb lasagna sauce as well. You can add extra seasonings to your taste, as it simmers. GREAT RECIPE! THANKS!

My hubby dislikes tomato sauce emmensely and loved it, can't stop talking about it! I'm allergic to red wine & choose to substitute for 1 TBSP white wine vinegar. I let it simmer about 3 hours and the kids couldnt wait. The aroma was awesome and the taste superb! It will be used time and again in this household! Thanx, thanx, thanx!!!

This is the best spaghetti sauce. My husband, who usually makes up his own sauce as he cooks, loved this one. He even said it was better than his. A definite keeper. Thanks for sharing.

Tested on 6. Those who prefer a mild flavor and meaty sauce liked it best.

This was a very meaty recipe. It has a unique flavor that I wasn't really crazy about, though, as my husband said it does grow on you! I would probably add more tomato paste or sauce next time, as I prefer a "saucier" sauce.
