Aunt Rocky’s Spaghetti Sauce

Remove sausage from casings, and brown in large skillet. Break up into small chunks as it cooks. Do not drain.

When sausage is done, add all other ingredients, stir and bring to boil. Reduce heat, and simmer the sauce for about 20 minutes.

Serve over your favorite pasta substitute (or pasta, for non-low carbers). Garnish with Parmesan cheese or Italian Spice blend, if desired.

Makes approximately 9 servings of 1/2 cup each.

Tip: I use Healthy Noodles (purchased at Costco), or roll up one of Aunt Rocky’s All Purpose Low Carb Tortillas (see recipe on Tasty Kitchen) and slice very thin for spaghetti.

I don’t get any commission or kickback for products I use or mention in my recipes. Nutritional estimates are per serving based on exact ingredients I used, calculated with My Fitness Pal’s online recipe analyzer. The recipe is stored there and available to MFP users for logging in their food diaries. I do not include sugar alcohols or liquid sucralose in my nutrition counts, as they are not absorbed by the body and rate zero on the glycemic index.
