Do you make your own spaghetti sauce? What's your favorite recipe?

Hi, beautyqueen. How have you been??? I do make my own sauce but I don't have a recipe per se. I cook down a yellow onion and a clove of garlic in EVOO. Then just add a can of tomato paste and whatever additional cans of tomatoes I have on hand. I like to add both a can of diced tomatoes and whole tomatoes just to give the sauce some texture. Also mushrooms I do the same, I dice some up real small and cut a few just in half or quarters for more texture. The seasonings I add all depends on the cans of tomatoes that I used. I often buy the seasoned tomatoes and sometimes will not add any additional seasonings in that case. I have missed seeing you around here. It will be fun to see all the sauce recipes given here.

I make spaghetti with white sauce [carbonara], and my fairy godmother told me to heat up a can of Nestle Cream, add 1/2 tsp of sugar and 1/4 pepper, a bar of grated cheese and a chicken cube dissolved in a cup of hot water. It's that easy.

I sometimes make my own sauce, but I don't follow a recipe. I normally just add some spices to a can or 2 of tomatoes and let it simmer for awhile to help break down the tomatoes a little bit. I think I normally use garlic, oregano, basil, parsley, and a little salt and pepper.

I usually will make my own sauce too, except for certain meals which I prefer to use Prego with. For my sauce I just use tomato paste with equal amounts of water, a dash of salt, and loads of spices. Sometimes I'll add diced tomatoes, and sometimes some meat of some sort. I'll add raw sausage or meatballs, or cooked ground beef. My sauce never turns out the same twice because I don't actually follow a recipe, I just throw in whatever spices I have and am in the mood for. I'll put some minced garlic, onion flakes, and bunches and bunches of italian seasonings and whatever else is in the cupboard. Usually a couple bay leaves too.

I do make my own spaghetti sauce. I make a simple sauce that consists of fresh garlic, onions, fresh basil, and crushed tomatoes. I will saute the garlic and oninons in olive oil. I then add the can of crushed tomatoes and basil, I bring it all to a boil and then turn it onto simmer, and simmer between 45 and 60 minutes. It's tasty, easy and economical.

I haven't made homemade spaghetti sauce in quite a while, but that is due to the fact that the place where I am currently staying isn't really conducive to cooking. I'm just hoping that I still have my flair for cooking by the time I get into another, better space.

I make my own sauce with 2 large cans of Hunts Sauce, 1 lg can of Hunts Puree, a pinch of baking soda, garlic powder, basil, salt and pepper. We all love it. If it gets too thick, I add a little water. It has to be cooked all day with the meatballs and sausage in it to absorbe the flavor from the meats too.

I buy the garden style Prego brand and then I'll add a few more things to it such as green pepper, diced tomatoes, chopped onions and mushrooms. We love lots of veggies in our sauce.... lol I used to make my own then I tried Ragu and hated it!! So I continued to make my own until I got brave and tried Prego and been stuck on it ever since!! lol

I never have enough tomatoes to make spaghetti sauce, but maybe I will this year. I made brushetta last year with my tomatoes as well as had some for salads and sanwhiches but I think that there are some good homemade spaghetti sauces around. I will try it this year if I can make it I will.

I bottle my own tomato sauce in the summer, which is delicious. I just reduce fresh tomatoes down, and down, and down, until they reach a nice thick consistancy. Sometimes I fry minced onions and garlic in olive oil and include it, other times I add handfuls of fresh spinach. It depends how I feel at the time.

haha. wish i could try making my own sauce. i barely passed in cooking the basic spaghetti recipe. i use hunt's sauce in parmesan cheese flavor. tastes fine. i don't really like eating spaghetti maybe except when i'm really hungry or once in blue moon i craved for it. i actually prefer palabok or pancit malabon (you would know if you're Filipino) lols. just sharing =) thanks beautyqueen!

I don't know how to make a homemade spaghetti sauce.. i usually use those in tetra packs.. Using the premade sauce is a lot easier than making a homemade spaghetti sauce as there's no need to buy lots of ingredients and spices..

I don't actually make the spaghetti sauce, but rather, improve what comes out of the can. I'll never forget the first time I did it...it was purely by accident. When my hubby and I first got married I wasn't a great cook. I was making spaghetti one night and while I was cooking the beef for the sauce I just started tossing in spices. Garlic, pepper, salt, etc... I had used generic sauce so I wasn't expecting it to be all that great. So I got it done, gave my hubby his plate and we sat down to eat. It was honestly the best spaghetti that either of us had ever eaten. To this day I still make it the same way and I'll never forget the first time my little girl said "Nana, mommy makes spaghetti better than you." I beamed! lol!

I am not so capable...i never have a homemade spaghetti.I've had italian dishes for just a few times actually.And i uesd the store bought kind once.It's made in italy.but it tastes ok...

I basically make all my own sauces that are tomato based, I don't follow a recipe however so I don't really have one to pass along. I cook like my gramma did, a little of this and a little of that. lol I use tomato sauce and paste, onions, garlic and then I add a touch of white sugar to cut down the acid (husband gets really bad heartburn with almost everything). I add parsley, garlic salt and powder, onion powder and salt ( I go easy on the salt parts as I don't like salt) Oregano, basil and I think that is it. Hmm weird when I'm making it is easier to remember. I think I got it all thou. I'm having a garden this year and hoping to can some totally from scratch.

well, I do cook spaghetti on every special events or even ordinary days in our family. If you like jollibee spaghetti tastes like then here are my things. Spaghetti pasta, tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce, ground pork and seasonings, a can of evaporated and condensed milk, and lastly, the cheese. Please serve pasta and sauce separately. Enjoy :)

Sorry,I dont do homemade. I use progresso and that isnt to often its hard to make spaghetti for two and when all the family is here they dont like it so I rarely cook spaghetti. You have a great night.

Hi,it seems that you love cooking very much.You must be very happy with your life.I don't know how to make sauce by myself.But i am glad to learn that cooking is a one of way to improve the quality of people's life.

Yes, I make my own spaghetti sauce. I just don't like the taste of the sauce in can from supermarkets. I made my own tomato sauce, carbonara, pesto, marinara, puttanesca, meat sauce, name it.... I suggest you nave a look at some Recipe websites, they are really helpful.

I do not like italian dressing food,I like chinese chicken, it tastes really good!
