Like I said in a previous post, we eat spaghetti probably once a month. After the same way of making it, it starts to get a little boring. I didn't necessarily follow a recipe for this one, I just started adding different things in that I typically wouldn't do. It doesn't even really require a list of ingredients & directions because it was simply me just being a little more creative.
Did my usual and browned the ground beef but this time I added some chopped onions and minced garlic. Drained the grease. Added jar of ragu, and added a can of diced tomatoes. Stirred. Then I just added some italian seasoning and whatever else sounded good. Oregano, pepper...
So although it was basic and simple, it gave it just a little different taste. Slightly more homemade tasting, instead of just doing the typical brown the ground beef and pour in the ragu. I let it simmer for about 15 minutes while the noodles were cooking.
My husband wasn't impressed and was a little bummed because he doesn't like tomatoes! But, he ate it for dinner, and even packed it for lunch so it must not have been that bad!
Just adding some little things can change up a meal a bit...
