This is the busiest time of year for most of us. The holidays are wonderful as we get to spend time with friends and family. But with the fun comes a lot more work! All the cooking, cleaning, shopping and entertaining can be overwhelming. Often it can seem like there’s not enough time to accomplish everything.
I try to make the most of my available time each day and also make smart choices when it comes time to feed my family. So while I make a fantastic homemade pasta sauce, it’s time consuming and just not worth spending hours to create. Especially when I can open a jar of RAGÚ® Homestyle Sauce and create a delicious meal in a flash!
Each jar offers bold flavors and a thick and hearty texture that hugs pasta. No need for me to work all day when the folks at RAGÚ® combine premium ingredients including vine-ripened tomatoes, diced onion, garlic and fragrant herbs to create a delicious sauce that my whole family loves. They chop and simmer delicious ingredients and all I have to do is pop open the jar.
There are five varieties so that I can choose the sauce that best fits my recipe.
- RAGÚ® Homestyle Thick & Hearty Mushroom
- RAGÚ® Homestyle Thick & Hearty Meat
- RAGÚ® Homestyle Thick & Hearty Traditional
- RAGÚ® Homestyle Thick & Hearty Four Cheese
- RAGÚ® Homestyle Thick & Hearty Roasted Garlic
What’s great is every RAGÚ® red sauce, including the new RAGÚ® Homestyle Sauces, contain no artificial colors, no artificial flavors and no high fructose corn syrup. You can use any of the sauces to whip up a quick and easy spaghetti dinner or add in a few extra ingredients to create a delicious meal that will have your family running to the dinner table.
One of my favorite recipes that I choose when I need a delicious meal that doesn’t require a lot active prep is my Mediterranean Baked Fish recipe. You simply top fish with a little RAGÚ® Homestyle, some onions, olives, capers and then toss it in the oven. Boil up some pasta while it cooks and in about 20 – 30 minutes you have a meal that has amazing flavor!
My family gets a delicious meal and my efforts are minimal…it’s the perfect weeknight dinner!
