A rich and flavorful spaghetti sauce made with a blend of meats and fresh vegetables, perfect for any pasta dish.
Chop the onion, carrot, celery, green pepper, and garlic finely.
Chopping the vegetables finely ensures they cook evenly and blend well into the sauce.
Heat a dutch oven over medium heat and add the ground beef and turkey.
Use a wooden spoon to break up the meat as it cooks for an even texture.
Add the chopped vegetables to the pot and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pot.
Pour in the red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to deglaze.
Deglazing adds depth of flavor by incorporating the browned bits from the pot.
Add the canned tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and brown sugar.
Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Season with parsley, basil, oregano, bay leaf, cinnamon, salt, and pepper.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Simmer the sauce over low heat for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
The longer you simmer, the more the flavors will develop.
Stir in the grated parmesan cheese before serving.
Adding cheese at the end enhances the sauce's richness.
Serve the sauce over cooked pasta and garnish with extra parmesan if desired.
Pair with your favorite pasta and a side of garlic bread for a complete meal.
