8 Reviews of Olive Garden Spaghetti Sauce

From: Chef #278214

On Apr 5, 2008

This is a great sauce! My entire picky family loves it, and it is fabulous in the crock pot all day too if you are going for a come home dinner. My son doesn't like "chunks of tomatoes" in his sauce, so we substitute tomato sauce for stewed tomates and omit the mushrooms and peppers. This is also (without the beef) a great sauce for chicken parmesan!

    This was a hit in my household. I agree that the grape jelly really completes the dish. Next time I'll triple the recipe and freeze. Thanks for sharing.

    My recipe for this does not have the mushrooms and green pepper but it is one of my families favorite sauces for pasta. I virtually takes no time to make and is delicious. The grape jelly is the twist.

    This was okay, but a bit too sweet. If I make it again I will only use a tablespoon of jelly. (Although it could be because I used the generic Safeway brand).

    YUM! this is delicious! The only change I made was that I used ground turkey in place of the ground beef. It was amazing! I never thought using grape jelly in spaghetti sauce but now I am hooked. It was a awesome ingredient. We didn't think it was to sweet. It's one of the best spaghetti sauces I have ever had. I used this over stuffed shells Stuffed Shells. Thanks so much for sharing this delicious sauce!

    Way too sweet! Omit 1/2 of the grape jelly and it would be good.

    This recipe was quite the surprise! I must admit I was very skeptical as I shopped for the ingrediants ( grape jelly you say??) This is very, very good! I used sliced fresh mushrooms instead of canned ones and sauteed them separately in a little olive oil before adding them to the sauce. This is a keeper!
