You can use this spaghetti seasoning blend two ways:

• Add about 3 tablespoons of the spice blend to a pound of ground meat. Use the meat for a meat sauce or in meatballs.

• For tomato spaghetti sauce, combine 3 tablespoons of the spice blend with 6 ounces (one can) tomato sauce and 1 3/4 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer about 10 minutes.
