Kent’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce

Helpful hints

• Brown sugar takes the harshness out of the tomato sauce. Kent’s children love the sauce prepared this way.
• Check labels on spaghetti sauce and select a brand lower in sodium.
• Spaghetti sauce, like other tomato products, is high in potassium. By limiting the portion to 1/4-cup per serving, this recipe is acceptable for a low-potassium diet.
• Suggested sides include iceberg lettuce with low-sodium Italian dressing, Italian bread toasted with garlic spread and a small glass of lemon-lime soda.
• Refrigerate or freeze leftovers for a quick meal later.
• If you do not like whole wheat spaghetti, white spaghetti may be substituted.
