This was great for our sauce in spaghetti pie for dinner!!! I made this subbing oregano for the rosemary, as I am really not a fan of it's flavor. I seasoned the sauce to our taste for all the seasonings and it was so good and flavorful!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe CJAY!! Made for your win in the football pool, congrats!!

Used ground chicken instead of beef, otherwise made it just as stated. The sauce is nice and thick and also easy to make. The pepper however, well, too much. Wonder if it is correct with three teaspoons, one, or maybe one and a half would be sufficient, at least for our taste. Nevertheless, I am pleased to have tried it and will make again albeit with less pepper. Thanks for posting. Made for My-3-Chefs, November 2009.
