My Last Minute Meal

This is one of our favorites when we're hungry and want something homemade. This is one of Richie's creations that has definitely become a favorite.

Pasta with a Sweet Meat Sauce
16 oz tomato sauce
½-1 lb ground beef (depending on how much meat you want)
salt and pepper to taste
1 T garlic powder
1 T dried oregano flakes
3 T honey
1 lb pasta (farfalle, penne, spaghetti)

1. Boil water and cook pasta according to package directions.
2. Brown the meat in a large saucepan. Drain the excess fat off the meat. Stir the tomato sauce into the meat. Stir the spices (garlic, oregano, salt and pepper) into sauce. Stir in honey.
3. Let simmer covered for ten minutes. Add sauce to pasta and serve hot.

Add a salad and some garlic bread and this makes one yummy quick fix meal.
