Having a large amount of family living nearby and visiting often, I have had to learn how to feed a crowd! I love cooking and so these recipes are easy, with minimal prep and clean up. In order to make these two sauces I used a pot, skillet and Crock-Pot.

I made the spaghetti sauce, or red sauce on the stove and the Alfredo sauce in the Crock-Pot. This helped with minimal work and an easy clean up of only a few things at the end of the prepping.

Recipe for Spaghetti Sauce:

• 1 can tomato puree
• 1 can diced tomatoes
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp minced onion
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• hamburger (if you would like)
• salt and pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients and put in a sauce pan on medium heat. Heat all ingredients until they are warm (about 15 minutes). If you choose to add hamburger, heat in a skillet until brown, then drain and add to sauce.

Recipe for Alfredo Sauce:

• One triangle of Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 2 tbsp cream cheese
• 1 pint of heavy whipping cream
• 1 tsp oregano
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper

Put all ingredients in the Crock Pot and put on low heat for one hour.

Add noodles at to your pasta and enjoy!
