This robust and flavorful spaghetti sauce is a celebration of garden-fresh vegetables, savory Italian sausage, and rich ground beef, simmered to perfection with aromatic Italian herbs. The slow cooking process intensifies the flavors, creating a sauce that's equally delightful on spaghetti or layered in a lasagna.
