Supernatural Spaghetti

The idea for this recipe came to me when I saw someone dip a slice of pizza into a pasta dish. My wife and kids love it and so do my friends! —Robert Smith, Las Vegas, Nevada

  • Total Time
    Prep: 20 min. Cook: 30 min.
  • Makes
    6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 1/2 pound Italian turkey sausage links, casings removed
  • 1/2 cup chopped sweet onion
  • 4 cans (8 ounces each) no-salt-added tomato sauce
  • 3 ounces sliced turkey pepperoni
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 9 ounces uncooked whole wheat spaghetti
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 12 fresh mozzarella cheese pearls
  • 12 slices pimiento-stuffed olives

Directions

  • In a large nonstick skillet, cook beef, sausage and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking up meat into crumbles; drain.
  • Stir in tomato sauce, pepperoni, sugar, parsley and basil. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 20-25 minutes or until thickened. Meanwhile, cook spaghetti according to package directions.
  • Drain spaghetti; toss with sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Top each serving with 2 cheese pearls and 2 olive slices to resemble eyes.
    Freeze option: Do not cook or add spaghetti. Freeze cooled beef mixture in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Place beef mixture in a large skillet; heat through, stirring occasionally and adding a little water if necessary. Proceed as directed.

    Pretty good, but it did seem to be missing a little something...if I make it again, I may add some diced tomatoes or other seasonings.
