This is a Cortney Loyd Original – and there aren’t too many of those! The fact that this recipe has junks of vegetables in it alone tells you it is something to write about! (Cortney has a thing with actually seeing vegetables, ask her about it some time)! This is slow cooked spaghetti sauce that can be used with the lasagna recipe also.
