Directions:
In a large pot (i.e. 6 to 8 qt.), sauté onions and garlic in olive oil until onions are translucent. Add celery, carrots and parsnip and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef. Break up lumps and cook until the meat is no longer pink. Add bay leaves, salt, pepper, basil and oregano and stir. Stir in tomato paste. Add sauce. If the sauce is too thick, you can add water. Cover and simmer 45 to 60 minutes. Remove the bay leaves. Serve with spaghetti or pasta of your choice.

Personal Notes:
This was one of the first meals my mother taught me to make. My husband likes my sauce better than those made in the finest Italian restaurants! This sauce freezes well and is also a good base for lasagna.
