Garlic Spaghetti Recipe
This amazing spaghetti recipe is on its third generation and counting with our family. And it has spoiled us for any other spaghetti we have tried anywhere. Made with from-scratch ingredients, it is an unbeatable comfort food. We make it using our own tomatoes, herbs, beef, and, of course, garlic. Let me tell you, it’s good. My children prefer noodles, but I often cook up a spaghetti squash for myself as a gluten-free option. So good!
The flavor is the richest when you can let the sauce simmer for a few hours on the back of the stove. So start it early in the afternoon and enjoy a ready-to-go supper in the evening.
