So, my husband, Eric, has often boasted that he makes some wonderful food. In the 5-and-change years we've been together, we've cooked together quite often, but he's cooked for me only a few times. Tonight, he decided it was time to make some spaghetti for me.
He doesn't use ground beef for his meat sauce, but rather ground sausage. In this case, it was the Jimmy Dean all natural regular pork sausage, because it was available and cheap. He started by sauteƩing garlic in olive oil, and then adding the sausage and browning that down. After it was brown, he added a large can of tomato sauce, a small can of tomato paste, oregano, thyme, white wine, lemon juice, and Italian dressing. I'll admit, that last one threw me for a loop - I don't really use Italian dressing in, well, anything, so it never occurred to me to add it to a pasta sauce. We cooked up some spaghetti to go with it, using a tip I heard on Food Network where we drained the pasta and added it to the sauce to cook for the last minute or so, and then served it up.
I admit, I probably ate way too much, but it was SO good. Eric probably doomed himself, though - he's proven that he can cook well, and now I'm going to make him do it more often. :)
