Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cans (15 ounces each) Canned tomato sauce
- 2 cans (14.5 ounces each) Canned diced tomatoes
- 1 can (6 ounces) Canned tomato paste
- 1 can (4 ounces) Canned mushrooms, drained (optional)
- 1 can (2.25 ounces) Canned black olives, sliced and drained (optional)
- 1 can (14.5 ounces) Canned beef broth
- 2 pounds Ground beef
- 1 large Onion, chopped
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked ground beef. Sauté until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Transfer the beef, onion, and garlic mixture to a large stockpot or slow cooker.
Add the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, mushrooms (if using), olives (if using), and beef broth to the pot.
Stir in the Italian seasoning, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low. Allow the sauce to simmer for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed to suit your preference.
Once cooked, let the sauce cool completely if preparing for storage. Divide into freezer-safe containers or bags, portioned as desired.
Label and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating. Serve over your favorite pasta and enjoy!
