Hi everyone! Sharing with you the recipe for my middle child’s favorite Pinoy-style spaghetti. Well, she eats any type of pasta dish, but this version is her favorite when it comes to the bolognese-style spaghetti dishes. I have to warn you though that what she likes is not too sweet, but more of cheesy, savory type of meatsauce.
