Fazoli’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce Ingredients:

Its recipe card includes the following simple ingredients. 

• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 medium chopped Onion
• 3 Garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 pound ground beef
• 28 ounces crushed tomatoes (canned)
• 8 ounces tomato sauce (canned)
• 2 tbsp Tomato paste
• 1 tbsp Sugar (adjust to taste)
• 1 tbsp dried Oregano 
• 1 tbsp basil
• Salt (to taste)
• Black pepper (to taste)
• Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
• Parmesan Cheese (serving)

Instructions:

Make Fazoli’s signature dish with these ingredients. I believe they are also not heavy on our pockets. It adheres to traditional cooking methods with few ingredients mostly we have in our kitchen cabinets. 

• Brown beef on a large skillet over medium heat until it is completely cooked. Your meat sauce’s base is ready. Drain the excess fat.
• Now saute garlic, chopped onions in the same skillet so the leftover oil in it infuses flavors in them.
• Stir crushed tomatoes and tomato paste on low flame for at least 20-30 mins. 
• Add salt, black pepper and red chilli flakes to taste. 
• Add oregano and let it simmer for at least 20-30 mins to let the flavor melts and the sauce thicken. 
• Cook spaghettis as per packet instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
• Once the sauce thickens,  spread over the cooked spaghetti. 
• Put the grated Parmesan sauce at the top of it.

The savory flavor is an outcome of browning meat and cooking in the tomato sauce and spices.
