I call this “The Everything” spaghetti sauce because it fits all the “wants” for my family! 😜🤣

I need gluten and dairy free and this recipe is (check Worcester sauce label to be sure yours is.) It can be used with any noodles you want to… not just spaghetti. Sometimes I don’t have spaghetti and just have to use penne.

I love a meat sauce, but my family doesn’t, so this one has some meat, but doesn’t overwhelm the others. The parents here also like chunked tomatoes that doesn’t come in a jar sauce usually.

Plus I can freeze this for a quick dinner evening! I like a large recipe that I can easily use later! I need it! 😉

The Everything Spaghetti Sauce (freezer friendly)

I use this recipe for day of dinner and then to add to the freezer for quick dinner nights! My family doesn't love meat, so I don't put a ton in, but you can always make more if you have a large pan!
