I made this recipe and my friends loved it!! The slight sweetness is different from your normal spaghetti sauce. I didn't add garlic powder because I didn't have it, and it still turned out great!

Good sauce, definitely sweet! I followed the recipe as written, the butter & sugar is what makes this stand out for sure. Nice change from the basic red sauce flavor, completely different taste. This would work well with sausage instead of ground beef also, which I will try next time. Thanks for sharing :)

I liked these sauce but my son didn't. I did reduce the sugar by half because I read some of the reviews. But it still came out a little sweet. But i didn't mind it. I will be making these sauce again for myself..

I completely omitted the sugar in this recipe, if sugar wasn't listed I would have given this 5 stars. Most canned tomato sauces have sugar in them already, so it isn't needed, however if you're using crushed tomatoes, I think the sugar would be about right.

I cut the sugar down to 2 Tbs like other reviewers had suggested and the sauce was still way too sweet.

I absolutely love this sauce!!! It is much better than the stuff you buy at the grocery store. I did add bell pepper and mushrooms but ofcourse you could add anything to this to make it to your liking. ABSOLUTELY 5+ STARS!!!

I have searched for sauce recipes for years, and thought the more complex the better it must be - but this is it, this is MY #1 recipe now - thanks for sharing it.

This is a good basic recipe for spaghetti sauce, but there is way too much sugar. I would maybe just put a couple of teaspoons in to take away the acidic taste of the tomatoes.

Good, but I made several changes. I used italian sausage instead of ground beef, only used about a tablespoon of butter and about half as much sugar as called for. Was still a bit too sweet, but not bad. I'll use it again, but with even less sugar.

As presented, I rate this a 4 star. I made the following changes and this came out awesome - used ground turkey; did not use butter nor sugar; used crushed tomatoes; and lots of Italian Seasoning spices. Thanks for getting me off to a start.

I'm not sure what was wrong with the recipe, but it just didn't taste good at all. I'm thinking the butter was a bad idea.

Delicious and quick; this was a hit with my kids. I used minced garlic and just a tablespoon of sugar, following the advice of some of the other reviwers, and substituted frozen meatballs for the ground beef. I always imagined that homemade sauce would be a challenge but this was so easy that I'll use this in place of the jarred sauce in the future. Thanks!

Very good thanks! I only used about a tbs of sugar per some reviewers' suggestions; was afraid it would be too sweet, as I find most commercial sauces to be. I also didn't have all the herbs so I used a tbs of Italian seasoning instead. And I added two tbs of Parmesan cheese because I like that in everything. Came out wonderfully homemade-tasting. Who needs jarred sauces? Thanks!
