Recipe by Sparow64: My Famous Spaghetti
Stand up and salute this recipe twice!
Thought there was going to be way too much sauce for one pound of spaghetti. Almost cooked two pounds. That would have been a mistake.
Added a chopped green bell pepper only because I didn't have another recipe lined up for the pepper and didn't want it to go to waste. Didn't hurt the recipe at all.
I like the way the 'shrooms were sauteed and added last to keep from overcooking them. Mother is a black olive freak and loved this dish because of them.
Made it with Garlic Bread With Herbs De Provence No Cheese.
A great little recipe with all kinds of flavor going on. Think I burnt my mouth 'cause I didn't wait for it to cool.

I had no idea you were trying my spaghetti, Point! THANK YOU for the nice review, and I am soo happy you enjoyed it! I don't like green pepper, but lots of people love them in their spaghetti...I'm glad you added it! lol on the noodles...it's hard to get it to come out even...I'm glad it worked for you! Thank you, for letting me know you tried it! Even though I've doctored it over the years to my tastes, this is my Mom's spaghetti sauce, so it's one of those close to my heart. : )

One note on the simmering of the sauce. Leave the lid canted just a little so steam can escape and help the sauce reduce. There is a lot of liquid that has to come out to make it thicker. And the lid helps keep all the simmer splatters in the pot. Or in this case on the lid and not on the stovetop. I used a 10 inch saute pan that had just enough room to spare.
