Bring to a boil and then cover and simmer on low for about 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Serve over cooked spaghetti noodles, with a sprinkle of powdered parmesan cheese.

This sauce has a slight sweetness to it, and it has just the right amount of Italian flavor, without it being overpowering, it is delicious and so easy too.
