Here is how you make Spaghetti Sauce ala Microwave:

I like to use my microwave for this recipe...but you can do it in a skillet on the stove as well, of course.In a 2 qt. microwavable dish, cook the ground beef on High for about 3 minutes, or until it is no longer pink. Stir and break up clumps as necessary. Stir remaining ingredients into the beef, mixing well. If you wish to add other seasonings or frozen veggies, this is the time to do so. (This is a great way to sneak in some veggies on reluctant eaters, btw.)Cook on High for about 5 minutes. Stir and heat for another minute or two if necessary.Serve immediately over your favorite pasta. (If you put your pasta on to cook when you start this sauce recipe, they should be done about the same time.)Makes about 8 servings.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user KEDIKAT.
