Simple Spaghetti Recipe

Published: Nov 20, 2013 · Modified: Apr 16, 2019 · This post may contain affiliate links

Growing up my favorite meal was my Dad's spaghetti.  I remember being a little girl, standing on a stool, helping Dad stir a great big pot of spaghetti with a great big wooden spoon. Dad always made enough for a small Army, even though it was just the two of us, but we would eat on it for days, getting better every time. I have finally perfected Dad's spaghetti recipe and love to invite him over for dinner to serve our favorite meal.

Dad's Simple Spaghetti Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground chuck
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 large green bell pepper
  • 1 can fire roasted tomatoes
  • 1 can tomato paste (I like Tuttorosso)
  • 1 carton fresh sliced mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 2 teaspoons oregano
  • pasta of choice cooked

Dice up onion and bell pepper and saute in olive oil. Add in ground chuck and cook until meat is completely done and there is no pink.  Drain.  Add in seasonings, tomatoes, tomato paste, and 3 tomato paste cans of water (Dad wasnt a big fan of measuring cups). Mix together and let simmer 20 minutes to let all of the flavors mix together.  Add in fresh mushrooms and cook until mushrooms are desired softness.  Serve with your favorite pasta, salad, and bread.

You can pick up Tuttorosso products in your local grocery store, and check out their website for tons of great recipes.  You can also join Club Tuttorosso to receive special offers, as well as connect with other club members to exchange recipes.

    My dad loved large production cooking -- lasagna, chicken cacciatore, spaghetti, gumbo -- anything that involved all day and provided lots of stuff to be frozen.
