Today my husband cooked for me in celebration of some recent good news. This is his tasty spaghetti recipe which has earned its way into the family recipe box.

Seth’s Spaghetti

          1 pound thin spaghetti
          2 jars of Prego Three Cheese Italian Sauce
          2 pounds of ground beef
          oregano
          garlic powder
          vegetable oil
          *put a strainer in each side of the sink

Noodles: Fill a large pot with water and add a cap full of vegetable oil. Break thin spaghetti in half and add to pot. With the burner on high bring the spaghetti to a boil which should take about 20 minutes. Once the noodles come to a boil and the meat is browned, the noodles are done. Strain the noodles in one side of the sink.

Sauce: Put the 2 jars of sauce into pot and add oregano and garlic powder to taste. Cover sauce and set on medium-low heat. Cook sauce until the meat is ready.

Meat: Cook ground beef in a large skillet on medium-high, browning it on all sides. This should take about 17 minutes. Stir often and break-up meat. Strain the meat (removing all grease) in a different strainer from the noodles. Wipe grease from the skillet and return the meat to the skillet. Add sauce to the skillet as well and return to the burner, cooking on medium-high heat for an additional 8 minutes.

*If you start cooking everything simultaneously, the noodles should be done the moment you combine the sauce and the meat and return it to the burner.
