This is much like my sauce. I use Cento crushed tomatoes, it doubles the calories from 20 to 35 per 1/4 cup but slices the sodium from 360 mg to 20 mg per 1/4 cup, I also add a pinch of thyme, majoram and a bay leaf to the other ingredients.

Hello there! I am planning to prepare your recipe on Friday evening and would like to know if I should add 4 Habanero peppers and 4 Jalapeno peppers or do I add 2 of each to equal 4 peppers? Thank you!

This is amazingly delicious, everyone who likes spicy food should try it. I cook for two so I halved everything EXCEPT the hot peppers. It was stellar.

I love this version of meat sauce. It has less fat than ground beef. The habanero gives it a lot of kick which helps me feel full. Good left over too.
