This recipe is from a traditional italian recipe book and SO MUCH TASTIER than those store bought sauces. Nutmeg gives the sauce a tasty twang. I make it all the time and my family love it - so i guarantee its worth trying it! Read more It takes a little time, but do it once and it comes easy to you. the ingredients are all non scary and you probably have them anyway! The meat sauce can be used to make a lasagne that is really good too, by layering with a bechamel sauce and lasagne sheets (sauce butter flour milk nutmeg, stir together over stove). Hope you like!
