SPAGHETTI WITH MEAT SAUCE AND VEGETABLES
DINNER AT HOME
There are those days when I work eleven hours, pick up my daughter from school and get home and try to take an hour walk. That does not leave a lot of time to prep or cook a meal especially when I did not plan or buy anything at the store. On this night, I basically looked into the refrigerator and tried to use whatever we have. I found some frozen ground beef and a little pork in the freezer so I thought some kind of a meat sauce would be good. We had those big bags of Celery, Bell Peppers and Carrots that you buy at Costco so I wanted to use them up and incorporate them into the sauce. I always keep a good supply of Bertolli Tomato and Basil Sauce in our pantry as it is simply the best tasting sauce in a jar that we have found. It is super inexpensive too with three jar packages now being sold at Sam's Club for around $7. This is less than $2.50 per jar. This dish takes just minutes to prepare and it is delicious and very inexpensive. Made enough sauce to feed a family of three for at least three days.
