Speedy Spaghetti

Ingredients

• 1/2 pound ground beef
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/2 pinch dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 ounces uncooked spaghetti

Directions

In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the onion until all pink is gone; drain.

Stir in tomato sauce, water, salt, parsley, basil and pepper; mix well. Heat until sauce boils. Break spaghetti in half and drop into sauce a little at a time. Cover and turn to low.

Cook until spaghetti is tender, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Stir occasionally to keep from sticking to pan and from noodles sticking together. Add water, 1/2 to 1 cup, if it starts to dry out and noodles are not cooked.
