Garnish
- flat leaf parsley, chopped (optional)

directions
- Using medium high heat preheat a large skillet that has been sprayed well with cooking spray or drizzled with enough olive oil to keep food from sticking.
- Add the chopped onion, carrots and celery to the hot pan and sauté until the carrots, celery and onions become tender and the onions become translucent, about 8 minutes.
- Add the meat and stir continuously to break up any large chunks.
- Once the meat is browned drain all fat and add sauce. Reduce heat to low and cook until the sauce thickens.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- This is great over pasta or in any recipe calling for spaghetti sauce. Wonderful garnished with grated parmesan cheese, chopped parsley and/or chopped basil.
- Note: For a little extra richness, add a pat of butter to your cooked pasta or directly to the sauce!
