Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ½ pound ground beef

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce

  • 1 ½ cups water

  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt

  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • ½ pinch dried basil

  • 4 ounces uncooked spaghetti

Directions

  1. Brown ground beef with onion in a large skillet over medium heat until all pink is gone; drain.

  2. Stir in tomato sauce, water, salt, parsley, pepper, and basil; mix well. Heat until sauce boils. Break spaghetti in half and drop into the sauce a little at a time. Cover and turn to low.

  3. Cook until spaghetti is tender, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Stir occasionally to keep from sticking together or to the pan. Add water, 1/2 to 1 cup, if it starts to dry out and noodles are not cooked.
