Brown ground beef & sausage with salt & pepper, drain fat. Then to larger pot add ground beef & sausage mixture, onion, green pepper, celery, tomatoe and zuccinni. Add tomatoe paste, stir, add water, stir, add tomatoe sauce & water, stir. Add rest of ingrediants except for garlic. Simmer 3 hours on low heat, stirring occasionally. Last 1/2 hour of cooking time add garlic.
Note: I've recently been cooking this in my crock pot and that works great! Add browned beef & sausage and all other ingrediants except garlic to crock pot and let simmer all day on low. Add garlic to sauce an hour before it's finished cooking...
Number Of Servings: Use 1/3 the sauce for dinner and freeze the other 2/3 for future dinners.
