I can't stand not having speghetti, I love it, I live for it! I make my sauce from scrach, I hope it is ok, but I am pretty sure it is, I am making whole wheat pasta noodles for the rest of the family, but I love my sauce so much I usually just eat it by itself with a little parmesan cheese. So here it is (its very simple, but taste great): about four cans of Tomato Sauce (I checked, no sugar added), some petite diced tomatoes (no sugar added), a small can of dice black olives, a can of mushrooms (if I have them) and some ground turkey breast (I have never cooked or tasted ground turkey before, but I will give it a try, usually it is ground beef but the leanest our store has is 80/20) all of it seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, some dried pasley, alittle parmesan, and just a little tiny pinch of cinnamon... That's it, does it sound ok?? Hope so, cause it's the only thing I made!! :)

Thanks a lot

Jedi

Hey there Jedi. I know what you mean about the pastas and sauces, so yummy! Instead of eating it plain without the pasta, I have been told that it is almost just as good if you take a spaghetti squash and slice it in half and bake it. Use a fork and scrape it and it strings out like spaghetti (thus the name lol). Use that in place of pasta.

Or you could use the sauce to make lasagna. Instead of noodles use sliced zucchini (longways of course). Im not brave enough to try egg plant, but you could do the same thing with it. Hope this helps some.

Truly,

Amy,
