My mom's spaghetti. Proportions below are for a double batch, which will feed one person for at least 8 meals, and if you buy the spices at some place like Ollie's or Aldi, they'll only cost you maybe $15, and they'll make many batches. Takes about 30-40 minutes to prepare, max.
This is absolutely my favorite food, and I eat it at least 2 meals a week. I make it for friends all the time, and nobody has ever argued with my assertion that it's about the best spaghetti yet conjured by man.
It's very filling, and fairly low in fat (turkey or venison can stand in for the beef, or go vegetarian and leave it out entirely). I highly recommend a wine called Menage A Trois California Red, by a vineyard called Folie A Deux. Runs about $10/bottle and is available nationally. Pisano Burgundy works just as well though, and is about $8 for a 750mL, which will make many batches. Doesn't matter if it the wine has been around for a month or two and is getting a little vinegary. If I'm using a good bottle that's very smooth, sometimes I'll add a splash of red wine vinegar to the recipe just for extra flavor.
For a nice date, the whole thing with the good bottle of wine and 2lbs of ground sirloin will run you about $25 (about $3.10/serving). Using the Pisano and skipping the hamburger (just as good), I think it would come out to about $10 ($1.25/serving).

Ingredients
Preparation
Serve on thin or regular spaghetti.
Serves ~8.
Bonus
Stir 1-2 cloves of minced garlic (to taste), 1/4 cup (or more, like, lots more) shredded Parmesan cheese, 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, 1/2 tsp ground rosemary, and 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning in to 1 stick softened, salted butter. Quarter a loaf of Italian bread and spread butter mixture generously, then toast lightly in the oven on Broil.
Best pairing with the spaghetti that I've yet found, aside from the wine.
Enjoy!
