"This is a quick, easy to make spaghetti sauce that we think tastes like the Prego brand. Just brown the meat and mix in the rest of the ingredients, throw it in the crock pot and let it cook all day while you're at work. Enjoy!!"

Finally a sauce I love to make. This is exactly what I have been looking for all these years.

Great sauce recipe that does taste wonderful. I used the sauce to make stove top lasagna last night and it was delicious. The only slight change was I just made the sauce without the meat in case I had more than I needed for my recipe and then added it to the beef I browned for the lasagna, and also reduced the sugar to 2 tbls as I taste tested as I went along. Really nice recipe to have when I have more time to make "homemade" instead of jarred sauce (which I usually use Newman's Own). Made as I "adopted" you during PAC 2011.

This is an excellent spaghetti sauce and soooo easy too. I don't know if it tastes like Prego because I have never tried Prego but this recipe is awesome. The only thing I did different was use 2 teaspoons of minced garlic. Thanks for sharing, littlethibaults!
