This rich, thick and tomato-y sauce comes from a secret Italian family recipe that’s been handed down for generations. It’s a classic pasta sauce simply adored by everyone who’s ever tried it. And the meatballs are fabulous.
Presented in a gift basket with a loaf of crusty bread and the recipe, this makes a wonderful holiday gift. Or, add a bottle of wine (see pairing, below) for extra cheer!

Why try? This incredible sauce is so simple to make, but gets acclaim every time it’s served.
Foodie Byte: The sauce is totally versatile…great with all kinds of pastas, perfect for lasagna, baked ziti and, of course, spaghetti. Also, it freezes well for use later.
These amazing meatballs make the perfect dish to enjoy after viewing the hilarious movie “Partly Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.”
Wine Pairing: Chianti Classico is our choice. Floral, red fruit flavor, a bit rustic and earthy with the velvety texture and zing of acidity to balance the tomato sauce. For more about wine pairings, see Wineexperience.com.
