Spaghetti Sauce

Ingredients:

1 lb Lean Ground Beef

2 Cans of ‘no salt added’ diced tomatoes

1/2 Tbsp garlic salt

1/2 Tbsp Italian seasoning

1/3 Cup Spinach

1/4 Cup chopped red bell pepper

Calories: 48 per 1/2 cup serving

Throw the beef into a deep frying pan and brown it up. When it’s cooked, drain the grease out of it and put it back in the pan.

Throw everything else into a blender and mash it up. (If you like your sauce a bit chunky, only put 1 can of tomatoes in when you blend it, then put the rest in whole.)

Pour your pureed goodness into the pan with your meat and simmer it until it starts to bubble. The longer you cook it, the thicker it gets, that’s all up to you.

The sauce will be almost brown… that’s normal, it still tastes fine!

You can throw it on any cooked pasta for a pretty easy meal, or you can add 2/3 cup of water, put it in a slow cooker and cook 1 lb of pasta right in the sauce for a few hours for a full flavored dish.

Feel free to sub the beef with ground turkey, sliced chicken breast (or whatever the hell else you can think of) if it’s low in fat and all that jazz…

This sauce isn’t much lower in calories than some store brands, but you are getting WAY less salt, and a healthy dose of spinnach, wich is full of nutrition, antioxidents and has shown to help prvent cancer…. your prostate will thank you when you’re older.
