OAMM’s Mom’s Spaghetti Sauce
Print
This has been a family staple for quite some time. It is a bit of a “sweet” spaghetti sauce. My husband likes it because it contains bacon. In his opinion, anything with bacon is acceptable!

Wow. Why didn’t I think to put bacon in the Spaghetti Sauce? The Hubby loves it too. Thank you so much for the smack in the head. lol

This looks GOOD!!!
Looks good! How much does this recipe serve? I would add some more veggies (carrots, celery, maybe zucchini) to up the nutrition in this recipe, but I like the idea of a sweet sauce.
I bet my family would like this. I like Natalie’s idea of adding carrots and zucchini.
I think I would use pancetta to keep it authentic. Sounds good.
Loved this! We had it for dinner last night and licked our plates. Delicious! Next time I serve it, I think I’ll add some red beans.
