Fantastic Base Recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was so good. I changed it up a little bit though. I used hot sausage (sliced, still in the casing) instead of beef,... added a red bell pepper, a jalapeno with the seeds, tripled the garlic and added crushed red pepper flakes. I served it on top of capellini. It was perfect. I can't even imagine what the sauce will taste like tomorrow!Read more

Perfect multi-use sauce
