1 1/4 c. onions
1 1/2 c. green pepper
2 cloves garlic
1 lb. hamburger
4 c. water or tomato juice
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. salt
Oregano to taste
4 tbsp. olive oil
2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
3 - 6 oz. tomato paste
2 drops Tabasco (optional)

Chop onions, peppers and garlic and lightly brown in oil. Add hamburger and brown; drain oil. Meanwhile mix tomato paste, water, pepper, salt and Worcestershire sauce. Add hamburger to sauce, cook slowly for 35 minutes. Add Tabasco (if desired) and stir. My Grandmother still makes this sauce for me almost every time I visit her. It's wonderful!
