This is a great recipe. It was a bit too sweet for us and my kids don't care for ground beef. I make the sauce with 1TBS of sugar and add meatballs. I never blend the ingredients; just chop them up and add everything to the crockpot. Delicious!

Wonderful sauce. This was my first time actually making a sauce. I only had diced tomatoes and tomato sauce on hand, so that is what I used. I did not use as much onion and pepper as called for. Ended up cooking this in the crock pot for 5+ hours since I had to leave. It was great! Will fix again.

This was great. Was making chicken parm and discovered I was out of spaghetti sauce. Found this recipe. Boy am I glad I did! Just made 2changes... didn't add meat and used half white and half brown sugar! Was awesome!

My daughter made this the other day and it was excellent. I know she used tomato sauce instead of stewed tomatoes, 1T. sugar instead of 2, and 1 onion and 1 green pepper. Couldn't have been better!

too much tomato, takes too long to cook. never use lean meat to cook pasta u need 85% or you will get no flavor. I did not care for this.

I liked the flavor of this sauce and would probably like it very much in lasagna. I served it over pasta last night. The only change I made was to cut the sugar in half and I'm glad I did. You just want to cut the acidity of the tomatoes not have a sweet sauce. I have left overs and I'm thinking about using it in lasagna. I think I could stretch what I have left. Thanks for sharing.

We did not care for this much. I made it as written, but found it to be too thin, didnt coat the noodles very well. Thank you for sharing. We did give it a try, but its very doubtful Ill make it again.

Perfect! I've been looking for this recipe forever and am so glad the search is over. Only "tweak" I made was halving the recipe except for the beef and garlic, using stevia in place of the sugar, and then added 1/2 tsp. marjoram. Love, love, LOVE this! Won't be buying canned or jarred sauce anymore.
