Italian Spaghetti Sauce (very very hot)
You might want to cut back on the paprika, red pepper flakes, and the chili powder as this is very very hot. IMPORTANT to make sure you measure spices EXACTLY; even just a little too much will make it too hot to eat. Not recommended for small children. FYI... when drinking wine with this meal, people have been known to get drunk because it's spicy hot but flavour was too delicious to stop eating it. I'm not kidding!
I've had quite a few laughs when I served this to friends. They would drink everything in sight, but wouldn't stop eating it. Oh well...you be the judge and PLEASE let us know of your experience!
