Grandma's Italian Spaghetti Sauce image

This is my grandmother's recipe from Italy. It is wonderful. I have gotten rid of all other sauce recipes because this one is so good. It is also wonderful over rice and by itself. I love it because it tastes too good and is very filling so it lasts more than 2 meals.

4 tablespoons olive oil

  • I like angel hair with this sauce--it gives it a unique texture.
  • I use Georgio bottled mushrooms, Del Monte Tomatoes, Hunts Paste, Lea& Perrins Worcestershire Sauce, McCormick Chili powder.
  • All the rest are fresh ingredients.
  • This is an old family recipe.
  • Once you taste it, you will never go back to any other sauce.
