#6. Family spaghetti recipe

[@anniebodyhome1000]

I am the Lone Mushroom Lover in my family! Well Granny Pat, you’ve made me hungry, which is a good thing for me. I’m fighting off stage 4 ovarian cancer. It spread to my stomach before I knew, so eating is a challenge too. God still has things for me to do, and my wonderful loving grandchild cares for me, so don’t worry. I am in the best of hands. Your videos have been lifting me up the past week or so since KZbin kindly put you in my path. I try to watch just such things; positive, uplifting, funny… And your videos wrap me like a hot cup of tea. Thank you

[@1nicenurse]

Praying for you!

[@lindasegraves6207]

I said a prayer for your healing! God Bless

[@justiceusa3267]

🙏🙏

[@chitchatwithgrannypat7900]

I am so sorry you must suffer with ovarian cancer. Although I have never been attacked by this terrible demon, I have seen it attack my family many times - six sisters, one brother, and both parents. So far, I have managed to. Elude this disease. I, like your many friends, will keep you in my prayers. Even a little humor is sometimes uplifting.

[@SJC49]

Please take good care of yourself!

[@Cajunbebe]

Hi Granny Pat. I happened upon a video of yours a few days ago and have been watching you ever since. I’m Cajun from Southwest Louisiana and cooking is my passion. I can’t cook as much anymore due to having a autoimmune disease Psoriatic Arthritis which causes extreme pain. I really love your stories it brings back memories of my Maw Maw and my childhood. You really remind me of my grandmother so much. All Of your recipes are wonderful and look delicious. I’m so thankful I found your page. You’re a breath of fresh air in this chaotic world. ❤

[@chitchatwithgrannypat7900]

I am so sorry about your condition, but I have a feeling you could teach me a few lessons on Cajun cooking. I could use some good, simple recipes.

[@GenxJul]

What a lovely women. We are all going to miss this generation. I still have one grandmother with us. She’s 93❤

[@charliebarnes7514]

You're a national treasure. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and life stories with us, it's priceless.

[@brendalamson2493]

Garlic is nature's antibiotics. It's so good for those who enjoys eating it. Bright Blessings.

[@Cataclysimz]

This is actually genius since the carrots cut down the acidity of the tomato sauce by making it slightly sweeter and the celery giving that slight crunch. Looks absolutely delicious!

[@angelamelson]

I just found you and now your my grandma!! I’ve never had a grandmother and you would be perfection!! Love your recipes, keep um coming!!!

[@brendabrooks9699]

My mother use to make spaghetti sauce like yours. Remember watching her as a kid. She passed in 1982 with cancer. Boy ! How this brought back memories . I wrote it down so now I will make it. Couldn’t remember how she made it til watching you. Thank you for sharing . Oh and she didn’t like mushrooms either ❤

[@conniemoore3051]

Thank you so much Granny Pat for inviting us in your kitchen! On a side note, I bought myself an electric can opener because I have some arthritis in my hand and it changed my world! I love it and recommend it! Take care and blessings to you!

[@dougstaner1220]

I just love your show. Now I was thinking how your Spaghetti would taste. II have learned to put a bit of sugar in my sauce over the years but I cheat and use the pre made jar stuff. Thank you for sharing. I just found you and enjoy your stories as well. Very nice dress Granny Pat.

Spaghetti is a great standby recipe for a crowd. It can also be messy!

[@sandraskalnik387]

I’ve never eaten spaghetti with celery and carrots in it. I love them and I am going to try it the next time I make spaghetti. Love you Granny Pat❤️

[@chitchatwithgrannypat7900]

This is funny - I didn’t look to see what story you were reading. I read your comment about my adding celery and carrots to spaghetti and thought to myself, “how does she know I just finished making spaghetti and added celery and carrots. (The first time i have made spaghetti since I posted the recipe). As I took my next bite, I looked up and spotted the title of my post, ‘Family spaghetti recipe’.

[@Rotax88]

Reminds me of sitting down in my grandmas kitchen and just chatting . Thanks for the great videos

[@kathyscrazylife]

Love you, Pat! A lady after my own heart-“getting a little action going” means “gonna cook something.”

[@jockoharpo2622]

The spaghetti sauce gets better when it fuses together for the next day after reheating.

[@SJC49]

Love your pasta in the sink story. I have a similar cooked carrots at Thanksgiving story. They went back in the pot, rinsed off, reheated and served. Thank you for your stories.

[@deborahcorcoran4475]

Granny Pat, you are adorable! Thank you for your recipes!!!

[@robingoff677]

Thank you for having your things cut up first….but I also understand that not every viewer knows how to prep and cook. I’ve never had carrot or celery in any spaghetti sauce, but I will try it. Your salad sounds yummy. I think we all have had that 1 important dinner we want to impress and have issues with one thing or another. Another great chat, Granny Pat!

[@ivorybow]

That half can of tomato paste...I put it in a zip lock snack baggie, mark it with what it is and the date, and put it in the freezer. Then it's ready for the next recipe. I am certainly going to try this sauce. I'm not much younger than you, and I love seeing a woman my age cooking on KZbin.

[@donnawheeler6283]

Granny Pat, I'm a lefty, too. I think I should live in the U.K. where everything is left-handed. 😄😄😄😃

Love the stories Mmm I was wishing I had spaghetti all week. I hate mushrooms too. That is a cool potato masher. I never saw one in a box like shape.

[@marylowe4264]

Along with enjoying your cooking I love listening to your stories, Thank you !!!

[@DeniseRude-cq2ex]

Hi pat, I agree about the paste, so I put it in a tiny freezer bag, and press flat. Then after it’s frozen you can break off as needed.

[@scm731]

Love being in the kitchen with you. Your stories are wonderful to hear. Thank you for sharing.🤗💖🌻✝️

[@bgueberdenteich5206]

That white casserole dish with the blue decoration is now a very valuable item , in case you are in need for money ,lol. I think it is from the 1960ies. Love you and your videos.

[@chitchatwithgrannypat7900]

Bought the Corning Ware dishes when they first came out in the 60s. You can find them in any Goodwill store. No need to pay high prices.

[@cherylbarnes6773]

That looks so good, I will definitely try! I love pasta! Good video and story!

[@bettychrispatterson9314]

You can freeze tomato paste in an ice cube tray, then pop out and transfer to zip lock in the freezer, no waste!

[@jackieM88890]

Thank you for sharing this!! Just like Granny Pat ...the tomato paste issue is a pet peeve of mine too. Problem solved!

[@miastuff7540]

I put the leftover paste into a small plastic sandwich bag and spread it out thin, and freeze it. It's always ready and also very good in a pot of Chicken or beef noodle soup, just a tablespoon. Gives it a lot of extra flavor.

[@jasonm4332]

you can also place it in a container and cover it with olive oil and place it covered in the fridge. -lasts indefinitely

Spaghetti - my next operation. Should hold me 3 or 4 days!

[@dinahsoar6982]

I do enjoy your stories!!!!..my mother collected the Currier and Ives dishes from the grocery store too. Years later when I was in my 40's I started collecting them from the antique store...they weren't that expensive at the time, maybe a $1 a plate..over time I collected, can't remember if it's 10 or 12 plates, plus cups and the saucers, the soup bowls and bread plates and a couple of serving dishes plus the salt and pepper shakers. Your salad sounds good..I jotted down the ingredients and I plan to make it soon, have everything but the grapes.

[@TennesseeTea]

Dear Granny Pat, Thank you so much for helping me to find this video! I don't know where the time has gone, but it doesn't feel like it's been 2 years ago when I saw this. This is DEFINITELY the story I was talking about. 😊 I had to watch the whole thing again, naturally. You made me laugh so hard 😅 When you said; "I'm not a mushroom person, I'd just as soon dip a rubber band in liquid butter!" 😂😂😂 Hahahaha! Now, that was funny! 😂 I know you've told us many times, that you aren't very comfortable in the kitchen, but if you hadn't told us that, none of us would know it! Your meals look delicious to me! Sometimes, simple is best! 😊

[@lindapouncey8234]

Great recipe and story! Thanks!

[@maureenostermann291]

I’m so invested in your story of when you had all of that company back when you were a newlywed. Where did everyone sit? What did you do for cutlery, plates and glasses? I would have been seriously panicking. When I first got married we lived in a 2 room apartment. Kitchen/living room and bedroom. I can’t imagine what I would have done with all of those people in my tiny apartment.

[@chitchatwithgrannypat7900]

I can’t recall all the details. I just remember that if my sister in law had known I dumped the spaghetti in the sink, she would never have eaten a bite. The sink was clean.

[@jerryholston6536]

For a period of time my Maternal Grandmother and Grandfather lived In Philadelphia. I was maybe 7, perhaps 9 years old at the time. She lived in a neighborhood where there was an established German enclave and had many lady friends that came over and discussed recipes as well as cooked together. It was when I discovered I enjoyed German warm potato salad. There were many other things I enjoyed but the potato salad stayed with me and it is still one of my favorites along with southern mustard potato salad. My Mom was from Oklahoma and she made GREAT mustard potato salad 😊

[@ivorybow]

My grandmother was from OK. She moved to Amarillo in the early 1920s with my toddler mother. They both made the same fabulous potato salad, and it is now my family staple. Maybe your mom and my mom were feeding us Oklahoma potato salad! Mustard, mayo, dill pickles, eggs, black olives, red pimentos, celery, and small chunks of potatoes. The secret ingredient is celery salt.

[@sheila4046]

I was born & raised in Oklahoma, my mom was born & raised in Mississippi. She made potato salad when she could afford to make it, she passed unexpectly in 2020. I still make th potato salad she did & have taught my son's & quite a few of their friends. Grandma Pat thank you so much for sharing your stories & videos

Good evening Granny Pat. As im working on preparing food for Christmas I thought I’d watch some of your older videos that I missed. We put the same things in our salads! You’re the first one I’ve seen do it like I do and everyone loves mine too. As I’m watching how you make your sauce, this old Italian found it very similar to our old Italian way that I make sauce. I can relate to what you said about being a newlywed, no money and having to make a meal stretch for “surprise guests” and spaghetti it is! I hate mushrooms too 😂. Loved this! Merry Christmas 🎄🎄 Debby, NY

For the tomato paste, I put 1 tablespoon in each square of an ice cube tray and freeze them. Once they're frozen just store in a freezer bag or whatever you want to use and keep frozen for the next recipe. I like to spread it on top of cabbage rolls before they go in the oven. Makes them extra tasty!

Hey there! 😊. Just an FYI, when you’re using those contraptions for your garlic or onions, etc… rather than pushing down real hard on it, you close it over the item then you wack it with your fist. It takes much less effort that way because that’s the way those are designed to be used. Try it that way next time and see it’s easier I promise. 😎😁🫠

She saute onions and green peppers, after she cook the spaghetti strings; can use wheat or regular, she drain, mix in the green pepper and onions, and she pour in the ragu sauce and stir it. After she get her ground beef cook brown she drain it. She put that in the pot with the other mix.
