I remember my grandma making this stovetop supper many times—we always loved Granny’s spaghetti! My husband and I now enjoy making this for our dinner. You can easily use ground turkey instead of ground beef if that’s what you happen to have on hand.

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium green pepper, chopped
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1-1/2 cups water
• 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 tablespoon grape jelly
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 ounces uncooked thin spaghetti, halved

Directions

1. In a Dutch oven, cook beef, green pepper, onion and garlic over medium heat, breaking beef into crumbles, until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, 8-10 minutes; drain.
2. Add water, tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder, jelly and salt. Bring to a boil. Stir in spaghetti. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until spaghetti is tender, 6-8 minutes.
