This recipe is originally from 1943. It is from “The Modern Family Cookbook” by Meta Given. I have taken the original recipe and modernized it for today’s generation. I added garlic and also sautéed the onions. I also added Italian seasonings and of course no pasta recipe is complete without shredded cheese! The original recipe can be found below.
