    Easy Pasta Sauce Recipe

    This semi-homemade pasta sauce is full of flavor and comes together fast! Perfect for a quick dinner or a dipping sauce for bread sticks!

    Why is it semi-homemade you ask? Because I use canned tomato sauce. *Gasp*

    As delicious as fresh tomatoes are they aren’t in season year round plus they take forever to cook down into a thick sauce.

    So this is my go to delicious spaghetti meat sauce recipe! Plus my husband loves it so that makes it a winner to me!

    Enjoy this easy homemade pasta sauce (well almost homemade!)

    My husband and I use this for spaghetti, to dip bread stick in, and it’s delicious as a pizza sauce!

    How to make easy pasta sauce recipe?

    • Brown the ground beef.
    • In a medium pot combine sauce, cooked beef, and spices.
    • Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through.

    What can I add to pasta sauce?

    I love to add garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning!

    How do you thicken spaghetti sauce?

    The way I like to thicken a sauce is to either let is simmer for a while so it reduces down or you could make a cornstarch slurry (1tbs cornstarch mixed with 2 tbs water) and stir that into the sauce.

    However, since this easy pasta sauce doesn’t typically need to be thickened since you are using canned tomato sauce.

    How do you like to eat your spaghetti? Mix all the sauce into the noodles or pour it over the noodles?

    I can go either way as long as it’s yummy and with this meat sauce!
