I love this sauce, although i would say add sugar to taste. I think a 1/4 cup is plenty.

I added fresh garlic and fresh mushrooms instead of the garlic powder and mushrooms in a jar. It was tasty but much too sweet for us. I do want to make it again but I will cut back on the sugar. Thanks for the recipe!

This sauce was wonderful - I don't get the other reviews - why would you comment that the sauce was too sweet when the recipe is called Mom's SWEET Spaghetti Sauce - sheesh - this is terrific just the way it is - thanks Langston28

My kids gave this "thumbs-up"! I was a little leary of the 3/4 cup of sugar and went a little shy of that, but when I make it next time I'll use the full amount. I also used fresh mushrooms instead of jarred. We are definitely keeping this recipe!!

This is a good one...I used any left over wine.. Instead of just oregano I used Italian seasoning. Added 1 tbsp minced garlic. Decreased the sugar to 1/4 of a cup. And used 1/2 lb Italian sausauge instead of the bacon..I have been making this for years...Sooo yummy!

Cut down on sugar, added 1 tsp basil, removed bacon/pepper/salt, and it still tasted awesome :D

This was very good for homemade taste. Added a pound of fresh mushrooms quartered. I doubled all of the ingredients including the bacon. Drained all of the bacon drippings except for what I needed to just coat the pan and added 2 cans of diced tomatoes for texture and only used 1-8 oz can of tomato sauce, and 2 cans of tomato paste. I used 2.5 lbs of lean ground beef and still only kept the sugar at 1/4 cup, which is plenty. Also, used 8 cloves of minced garlic when browning the beef and the vegetables. Thanks for the recipe.
