Speedy Spaghetti Sauce
With Big Batch Beef in the freezer, made-from-scratch meat sauce has never been so quick to make!

2 cups (500 mL) frozen Big Batch Beef
2 cans (19 oz/540 mL) Italian-style tomatoes
1 can (5-1/2 oz/156 mL) tomato paste
Directions
Pan-fry diced vegetables in saucepan in a splash of olive oil.
Stir in Big Batch Beef, tomatoes and tomato paste, breaking up tomatoes with back of spoon.
Big Batch Beef: Cook 4 lb (2 kg) Extra Lean Ground Beef in Dutch oven over medium-high heat for 10 minutes, breaking into small chunks with back of spoon, until browned. Drain and return to pot. Add 4 EACH onion and cloves of garlic, minced, simmer for 15 minutes until vegetables are softened. Spread in a single layer on several foil or parchment paper-lined baking trays; freeze until meat is firm, about 1 hour. Loosen into chunks, scoop meal-sized portions into freezer bags. Freeze for up to 3 months.
