Famous Spaghetti Sauce

1 lb. ground beef
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
20 oz cheap spaghetti sauce
2 cans stewed tomatoes (italian style)
italian seasoning
salt and pepper

Heat vegetable oil in large pot. Add ground beef and cook until brown, drain off fat, and add salt and pepper. Push ground beef to one side of pot with a spatula, put onion on the other side of the pot over the hotter part of the stove eye. Add garlic when the onion is almost translucent, and when the onion becomes translucent, add spaghetti sauce and tomatoes. Stir. Bring to boiling, then add italian seasoning to taste and reduce heat to simmer for 2-3 hours.

This sauce is absolutely fantastic, and pretty cheap to make. It's good with pasta, bread, or eaten with a spoon like chili. Also- the ingredients and their quantities are flexible. I never measure anything, and it always tastes great.
