  • Homemade spaghetti sauce with chicken breast that I grind with my attachment for my Kitchen Aid instead of hamburger, bell peppers, tomatoes and spices served over a big bowl of steamed cauliflower instead of pasta!

Then cool slightly, it has a very mild flavor when baked and is very tasty. 2)…
