Spaghetti recipe

Spaghetti is a combination food. The spaghetti is from the bread group. If you have a tomato sauce topping, it is from the vegetable group. Some people put meat in their spaghetti topping or serve spaghetti with meatballs. If you sprinkle cheese over the top, you've added a food from the milk group. Sometimes spaghetti might be served with clam sauce.

For food safety:
If meats like hamburger in this recipe have been frozen, you can thaw it safely by putting it in the refrigerator a couple of days ahead of using it. You can also thaw it in the microwave oven right before you begin cooking it.
