I posted a recipe a while back which consisted of homemade spaghetti sauce from scratch using roasted tomatoes. Well.. we all know that when you’re trying to feed a busy family and just want to get something quick on the table, ain’t nobody got time for that! My reason tonight for this simple but familiar, easy to make quick fix is that…. “it’s Friday night..I just got paid…lol. ?
My recipe is a take-off one and gets you on to your Friday night festivities or if you’re just winding down from a long work week. What are you waiting for..let’s get to it!
