Spaghetti Bravissimo
I have never made spaghetti this way and my husband and grandkids asked for seconds. I was told about this recipe by Linda, a fellow blogging friend. She said when she was young her mom made this all the time and they even ate it cold the next day. Check out her blog HERE.

Ingredients
Add water to a large pot and bring to a boil.
Add the dry onion soup mix and the pasta.
Cook according to the package directions.
While the pasta cooks, add the ground beef
to a large skillet over medium heat.
Cook the ground beef until no pink
remains then drain the grease.
Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, dried
parsley, dried basil and dried oregano.
Stir and cook until hot.
Once the pasta is cooked, add the
ground beef mixture to the pasta.
Stir well.
Place on serving plates and enjoy!

Sounds and looks good, Diane!
Thank you Janet. 💕
Difficulty easy! That’s what I like to hear!
Yes and the sauce cooks by the time the pasta cooks so quick too.
If you have any access to sunlight, grow these herbs in a tiny plot or in pots. Cut them up fresh in your pasta.
I do grow my own, I have two 4’ x 4’ Raised herb beds in our garden that I have grown for years. The ones I cook with are my own. I dehydrate all my extra before they flower and go bad. I have too many and I don’t want them to go to waste. Most people don’t have access to fresh herbs so I try to post dry herbs so they get the right measurements. I agree the fresh adds a whole lot more flavor for sure and that is great advice!
Spaghetti? It has to be good!
Yes but cooked totally different than I ever have! It gave it a different taste that was so good.
That’s so different and it sounds great
I know and how strange not draining the pasta!!!! I couldn’t believe how much everyone love it. Thanks Beth!
Looks delicious as always. Saved this for future use!
The hot fudge recipe turned out great by the way. So thanks!
SO glad you like it!!! I can’t wait to hear what you think about theSpaghetti Bravissimo too. 🌸🌺🌷
This looks tasty!
It turned out so good yet different from our regular spaghetti dinners. Thank you Christy!
Diane – First off, thank you for the shout out for my blog – I appreciate it. I am so glad I told you about this recipe and even gladder the family loved it. It sure looks delicious and is like a trip down memory lane for me. Even though it is 11:00 p.m., if I had a dish of this spaghetti in front of me, I’d dig in – even at this late hour! I say Brava to the cook for her Spaghetti Bravissimo!
Awww thank you Linda and especially for sending me the recipe! They all told me they liked this better than any spaghetti I have made before!
That’s great Diane. I’m glad I sent you it Diane. A new family favorite going forward!
Guess what the grandkids want for dinner Saturday night? I have a feeling I will be making this every weekend for a while…lol
Oh that is funny Diane – and next time make a double batch and make baked spaghetti with the leftovers (if there are leftovers). 🙂
Nope no leftovers! 1# spaghetti for 4 of us….lol
That made me smile. 🙂
Sounds very good 😋
It really was and today the grandkids asked me to make it again for dinner tomorrow…lol
Amazing Recipe Diane
Thank you so much!
Yum! This looks like an easy and delicious recipe!
It was a win-win for sure!!!! Thank you!
Nice steps you have taken.
Thank you!!!!
Its my pleasure
Yum! I love spaghetti
They asked me to make it again tonight and NO leftovers!!!! My grandson said “Can we have that special spaghetti?” Hahahahaha
That sounds sooooo good! But there are only 2 of us and only 1 of the 2 of us loooooves spaghetti. The other 1 merely tolerates it. SO, I wonder how I can cut this recipe down. 3 quarts of water is 12 cups so half recipe would be 1.5 quarts, aka 6 cups of water and then 1 pkg of the soup mix instead of 2. BUT I wouldn’t want to cut down the meat sauce part of the recipe, would I? Hmm…I guess I will try the 1/2 recipe spaghetti with the full recipe sauce and see what happens!
1-1/2 quarts water (6 cups), 1 envelope onion soup, 8 oz. spaghetti, 1# ground beef, 6 oz. tomato paste, 8 oz. tomato sauce, 2 tsp. dried parsley,1/2 tsp dried oregano and 1/4 tsp dried basil. Then follow the same directions. I’m not a huge lover of ground beef so I only used one pound with my recipe, I should have used two. Enjoy!!!
It’s all in the name, really. What more do you need to know it’s a great dish? 🙂
I totally agree!
This was a really nice!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing your results on your blog!!! Have a great weekend!
