A great meat sauce. I used it over spaghetti and substituted turkey bacon and ground turkey for the pork. It was still excellent.

This is the best recipe for Mostaccioli Sauce. This was the recipe for years on the R & F Pasta box when I was growing up. When R & F sold out eventually the brand was discontinued. This is easy and very tasty as well.
