Easy Sunday Family Dinner
Sitting down together as a family enjoying a wonderful home cooked meal is our favorite way to start the week off. All of us love Italian food and it’s actually our dad who first introduced us to Rao’s Homemade sauces years ago. A few fun tidbits; He’s a fantastic cook and inspired me to go to culinary school at the Culinary Institute of America!
This Sunday, it was my turn to cook family dinner, so I reached for my Rao’s Homemade Tomato Basil Sauce that’s always a staple in my pantry.

On the menu: ‘Spaghetti with Tomato Basil Sauce’ A quick and easy favorite that everyone loves!

It doesn’t have any of the bad ingredients such as unnecessary added sugar and fillers that are often times hiding in store bought sauces. Yikes!
