Fresh spaghetti sauce

This has been an incredibly busy week!!!

My oldest daughter is my guest chef for today. One of her clients had given her many tomatoes and she was pondering what to do with them, she asked me and I thought spaghetti sauce would be wonderful!!! It's easy to make and so delicious! Here is her pot just started. These photos she sent from her Iphone.
Spaghetti sauce

1 1/2 pound ground beef or sausage or a mix
1 onion chopped
1 green pepper chopped
garlic to taste I use a handful crushed
2 pounds or more fresh tomatoes ( canned would work too)
1 6 oz can tomato paste
2 teaspoons brown sugar (I use a teaspoon of molasses and erythritol)
1 1/2 teaspoon dry oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 or 2 bay leaves
2 cups water
1 cup wine white or red

Saute meat, onion, pepper, and garlic add the rest and cook on low all day. My mouth is watering, I'm going to have to make some too! I used to add about 6 raw chicken wings to cook in the sauce, they add a great flavor, that's my little touch. Adjust seasonings if needed. Be sure to have lots of parmesan to serve with it. You won't want to eat jarred sauce again.

She serves it with glutenfree pasta. I would serve it with zucchini noodles like these here or once in a great while I might use shirataki noodles or dream fields pasta. It's also wonderful in lasagna with thin sliced roasted eggplant and zucchini for the noodles or anywhere you would use spagetti sauce.
