Mealswap Tips
- Use electric skillet to contain it all

3 pounds Spaghetti Pasta

Early Prep
- Prepare Salads
- Chop up Onion, Garlic, and Stewed Tomatoes

Directions
Sauce
- In large pot or electric skillet cook meat, onion, and garlic together. Drain grease.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a soft boil.
- Simmer covered for about 1 hour.
- Remove cover for last 15 minutes, or until desired thickness.
- Remove bay leaves.
- If you don't use it all in a few days it freezes really well.
While the sauce is simmering
- Cook Spaghetti noodles (when drained, add a little olive oil to prevent sticking)
- Slice and butter French bread, wrap in foil. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes
