  1. I cannot believe how just adding a few ingredients can completely change the flavor of ordinary spaghetti! This is very good if you want an inexpensive meal, just a little out of the ordinary.
     
  2. Really simple to make and tasty. I used italian hot sausage instead of the ground beef and fresh tomato sauce. I really enjoyed the flavor of this sauce. Made for football Pool Week 11 win.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am an American transplanted from Dallas to Iceland by marriage to a native Icelander & I retired to become his "Kitchen Queen". We love to entertain our family & friends, so I have an eclectic collection of recipes. I especially love simple, easy-fix, flexible & make-ahead recipes - BUT also like challenging myself on occasion. I enjoy baking & food photography. I am devoted to the "More is Always Better Principle" & apply it liberally to bacon, butter & garlic. I can have ingredient issues due to availability here in Iceland & my DH is medically diet-restricted from some ingredients as well. Either situation might require me to modify a recipe, but I will do my best to be true to your recipes & fair/honest in my reviews. Mary Pat (aka twissis)
