Instructies
In a large pot, add the hamburger, onion, bell pepper, celery, carrot, and garlic; brown the mixture until the hamburger is no longer pink.
Drain off fat.
Add the undrained diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, sugar, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil.
Add the noodles, return the soup to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until the noodles are done, about 12 minutes.
Adjust seasonings and serve.
At the table let everyone add as much or as little Parmesan cheese as they desire.
Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
You don’t need to weigh out the spaghetti noodles. Just grab a handful that is about 2¼ inches in circumference (the circumference is the distance around the outside edge of the circle).
