What happens in your house on Sunday evening? Here are the Berry Abode we do Spaghetti Sunday and I would say on any given Sunday you are likely to find anywhere from 3-17 kids sitting around our dinner table and chowing down on Spaghetti! It is really an awesome sight to see and it fills my heart with so much joy! So much so that I thought why don’t I share my silly, simple, scrumptious, spaghetti recipe so other families can do the same? After all sharing is caring!
Disclosure: You will have to gauge the recipe depending on the number of individuals you will feed. For today’s purpose I will make enough for approximatley 6-8 people.
Ingredients:
Olive oil
1 box of chopped onions
Jar of chopped garlic
1 lb spicy italian ground sausage
1lb ground beef
Meatballs pre made. You can get these in the freezer section or I like to get them from the butcher at Central Market
1 jar of any vodka sauce spaghetti sauce or any spaghetti sauce your family likes
Red wine of choice, I prefer cheap because it is being used to cook not consume.
Package of angel hair pasta or Capellini (Our family prefers thin noodles)
CRACK BREAD which I find at Central Market and Tom Thumb but you can use any bread of choice. The kids have so lovingly named this bread Crack Break because it is sooooooooo good. It is Juliaan’s German Style Pretzel Baguette Bread that I find in the NON-GMO frozen food section of Tom Thumb and the Frozen Bread section of Central Market.
Bag of salad of your choice. Keep it simple people. Point is to feed the numbers and have everyone feeling happy, safe, and loved.
Sauce And Cooking Instructions:
This is one of those recipes I just go with so my measuring is alot of eyeing.
1-2 tablespoons Olive Oil in a large pot, heat on medium
Add your box of chopped onion and 3-4 tablespoons of your chopped jar garlic
Marinate for 5-7 minutes until everything is translucent
Add your italian sausage and brown that
Next add your ground beef and brown that
Add your sauce
Using your sauce jar fill it 1/4 full of wine (you can use more if you need your sauce to be more soupy)
Let all of that sit on the stove and marinate for at least 1 hour if you have time. Add wine if need more liquid but use your sauce jar so you get all the good stuff out
While the sauce is cooking I like to put my meatballs in a 350 oven for 30 minutes then add them to the sauce. If you use frozen meatballs you can cook according to their instructions.
Cook noodles according to package and family’s liking. My family likes al dente
Cook Bread according to package
Toss the bag of salad
BAM! There is your Spaghetti Sunday! May you and your family find as much joy as we do in it! May it start your weeks off right full of love and communication. May you all feel worthy!
