Many of our friends know that Mike is very handy when it comes to plumbing or fixing things around the home. In fact, he built our living area with a friend doing the electrical, sheetrock, heat ducts; like I said, he did everything. Mike likes to dream about projects he wants to do for the house but getting them done usually doesn't happen because he's a procrastinator.
With that thought in mind, we are creating a sitting room where the den once was upstairs. The wall has been torn apart from the bedroom to the sitting room and all the flooring is gone. He finally is starting to work on the new sitting room and I'm happy about the changes that are finally taking place.
What does that have to do with recipes you might ask. There's a recipe I have that takes all day to make but the time it takes makes the sauce unbelievably good. I guess good things take awhile to make, just like our sitting room.
Spaghetti Sauce
1 large can tomato paste
2 cans of water (fill the tomato paste can twice)
1/2 cup good quality Ketchup
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon Basil
1 teaspoon Oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tablespoons Wostishire Sauce
1 Chopped Onion
1 cup mushrooms
Saute onions until tender and place in the crock pot. Place the heat on low. Then add everything except the mushrooms. Cook for 4 hours until thickened and add your cooked hamburger or cooked sausage. One hour before the sauce is done, add Mushrooms.
Serve on pasta or your favorite dish as a tomato based sauce. Sprinkle with cheese to top it off.
This was one of my mom's favorite dishes and I still use it today.
