Meat Spaghetti Sauce and Rigatoni

This is Rosy's recipe that she shared with us at camping.

Sauce:

1/4 cup of olive oil
1 whole sweet yellow onion
5 cloves of garlic
56 oz can crushed tomatoes
28 oz can tomato paste
28 iz can tomato sauce
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp salt

Heat oil over medium low heat add garlic and onion stir until soft and golden do not burn.  Cook everything over medium heat.  Use immersion blender to sauce till no chunks. Simmer for 2 hours.

Meat:

Add sauce to 1.5 of browned ground sirloin or beef. Bring to boil.  Simmer 1 hour more


Rigatoni:
Use the same recipe but add a container of ricotta cheese to the sauce and meat then simmer for an hour because my kids don't like the chunks of ricotta in the rigatoni.  Then boil the rigatoni noodles and add that to the sauce mixture then get a 13x9 baking dish layer pasta/ sauce mixture with mozzarella and parmesan cheeses
