Spaghetti Sauce

I, personally, have always had a bad case of indigestion after eating prepared spaghetti sauce -- and it always let such a funny aftertaste in my mouth, too. One day I decided to experiment. A few additions to my pizza sauce recipe and I came up with something my family and I enjoy so much. Yummy! You'll never go back to ready-made spaghetti sauce!

This recipe makes a rather large batch but the extra does wonderfully in the freezer.
