Bought a jar of "Limited Selection Classico Seasonal Selection, Garden
Vegetable" a few weeks back. And it was quite good. Much better than the 99 cent Hunts I sometimes buy that is basically HFCS with a dash of tomato added-- and tastes like it... Anyway, I looked for the Classico in my Kroger and not there. Then I forced myself to go to Walmart Marketplace and not there. I prefer to go to the neighborhood Kroger since it's just a mile away and I can ride my bike. Broke down and drove to Target again and they still had the Seasonal Garden Vegetable, so I bought about 8. (I sorta became obsessed.) Anyone else try the Classico Seasonal Garden Vegetable? |

No, but I like their various pesto's so I'd probably like the rest of their products too. Speaking of pesto, do you still see their sun dried tomato pesto anymore? It must have gotten too expensive for the stores I shop in to carry because I see tomato pesto, but it's not Classico brand. -- Food is an important part of a balanced diet. |

I just buy Schnuck's canned pasta sauce. I think it's $0.89 a can. I just use it as a base for my own concoction of 1/2 a ground beef patty, black pepper, garlic powder, a very few red pepper flakes, lots of oregano, then sliced fresh mushrooms, a chopped roma tomato with a tiny bit of brown sugar and lots of dried basil, and a dash of red wine all cooked together and then dumped in a microwave bowl with 1/3 cup of sauce and nuked for 5 mins on power level 5 (is my recipe!) :-) John Kuthe... |

Years ago, I was anal about making spaghetti sauce all from scratch. Eventually I learned to buy cheap sauce and just enhance it. Just as darn good without some of the trouble. My sauce of choice is Hunts to start with. It's always cheap and I can doctor it up into a batch of great sauce. gary |

It is so easy, so much tastier and money saving to whip up a sauce at home. You can google this group to find many variations. |

I don't understand the appeal of Roma tomatoes. They tend to be really bland, low in both acid and flavor. Their only selling point is that they are high solids. Coincidentally, we're having pasta this evening with a bunch of browned ground beef, one jar of Classico Four Cheese sauce, with added powdered bay leaf, oregano and a tiny bit of MSG. I may even have a little pasta, since I weighed in at 161.0 this morning. No wonder I'm still losing. I stay pretty low carb, and after working 15 days straight, what do I do on my day off? I take my son skating, which means me skating to the park from the train 1+ mile each way, plus another mile round trip to get beer. Being the scientist, I decided to test an hypothesis, namely that beer makes people stupid. I pretty much never drink anything before evening anymore, even on camping trips, but in the interest of science, I made an exception. I ended up trying a trick that I've never tried before; my results added to the body of knowledge refuting the null hypothesis. OUCH! > > John Kuthe... --Bryan |

I never use a whole can and much prefer spaghetti sauce in glass with screw on/off lids that are easier to store in the jar in the fridge. And it just seems spaghetti sauce tastes better out of a glass jar, than metal can. |

I've never heard of Schnucks-- or are you people making this up? I've lived in PA, CO, MA, NH, and KY and never heard of that brand. |

However, I think the best sauce I've had, came from scratch, stuff from the garden, my sister made, and certainly no sugar added. Greg |

Plain tomato sauce/diced/chopped whatever is so cheap and it doesn't take much time to cook it down, add your own herbs to taste, sugar or no sugar, meat or no meat... it's endless what you can do with canned tomatoes. |

Actually Cheryl, you are correct. I've learned to start with the Hunt's spaghetti sauce as a base then enhance the heck out of it. By the time I get done enhancing it, I really could have just started with a tomato sauce base. I guess it just "seems" easier starting with a "flavored tomato paste." I make a batch of 7-8 quarts of spaghetti sauce whenever i make it and I freeze most of it for future spaghetti meals and good for lasagna too. Here's just a quick rundown of what I add to the Hunt's sauce (several cans of it). This might not be complete but gives you an idea. Hunt's spaghetti sauce as the base then add in: - ground beast browned with lots of chopped onions, then drained - many fresh tomatoes, chopped in bite-size pieces - a few tablespoons of olive oil (one of the few times I use this) - lots of basil and some parsley, and some garlic (fresh, not powdered) I forget the rest until I make another batch but the end results are restaurant quality.

So to get 7-8 quarts of spaghetti sauce (what I would think of as a "season's worth") how many jars (and the size) of Hunts do you start out with? > Here's just a quick rundown of what I add to the Hunt's sauce (several cans > of it).

It's certainly worth consideration... |

I like you method. I usually leave the meat out of batches that I freeze until I'm ready to use it. Actually for things like lasagna I like to put a layer of meat between layers of pasta and layer the sauce and cheese on rather than mix the meat with the sauce. But that's just me. |

They had some pestos. Actually, I think it was just alfredos. I don't think I saw any pestos. They had a "light alfredo". I was going to use a coupon, but did not see the Red Pepper one I had last week that I liked. They did have the spinach and cheese which I like, but will get it another day. I got some Morningstar veggie patties and when I checked out I got a coupon that said $4 off my next purchase at Kroger compliments of Morningstar. I was leery and asked the clerk, does this mean anything? And she said yes. That's one coupon I don't want to lose! |

Stay tuned, Cheryl. I plan to make another large batch of spaghetti sauce very soon. I always "wing it" but, this next time, I'll write down everything that I put into it. G. PS - I wouldn't puree things like you do. I like chunky sauce as long as there is a good sticky tomato sauce base. |
