This a family recipe from my sweet mother-in-law. She was given this recipe by one of her best friends. This isn’t your average spaghetti. Granted, it is not for one watching their figure but it is definitely worth the splurge every so often.I have made this as the main dish for an elegant meal or a simple meal for my family. My children absolutley adore it. This is their most requested dish. Anytime I serve this to guests, I am always asked for the recipe.
This recipe is great for a large crowd. I often double the recipe and freeze one for a future meal.
