Mom's Spaghetti Sauce image

"Mom made this when we were kids, and it was always my first choice for birthday dinners," recalls Kristy Hawkes in South Ogden, Utah. "Now I do the prep work in the morning and just let it simmer all day. When I get home, all I have to do is boil the spaghetti, brown some garlic bread and dinner is on!"
