Semi-Homemade Spaghetti with Fresh Herbs


Wheat Pasta:
  • In a large pot bring water and salt to boil
  • Add wheat pasta ( I like wheat pasta for the flavor, as well as, the nutrition value but you can use regular pasta if you prefer.)
  • Boil until Ala dent te (firm but tender)
  • Drain and place back into the pot that the pasta was cooked in so that excess water can be absorbed
Meat Sauce:
  • In a sauce pan add a few sprinkles of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of garlic, allow to cook over medium heat for a few minutes.
  • Add 1 pound ground beef, pork or turkey. Brown meat and drain excess fat.
  • Add favorite spaghetti sauce or homemade sauce (see separate blog for homemade sauce) and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer.
  • Add freshly chopped basil and oregano to sauce as it simmers, can also garnish with just before serving.
  • Before serving toss noodles with spaghetti sauce and serve or serve with noodles on bottom, whichever way you prefer.
