Preparing for a National Health Crisis (she: Jamie)
Dealing with a health crisis can be scary and may even seem hopeless at times, especially when panic starts to set in. It’s difficult to tell if you’re getting the whole truth about a disease, or if the media is just blowing things out of proportion.

The best part is this recipe makes a ton – so you can freeze the extra, can it for storage, give some to neighbors, or eat spaghetti sauce for a straight week (or a year, depending on how much you make)!
