I always make my own sauce in bulk. But as I plan my shopping menu I make sure to have some additional ingredients on hand as well. This way I can turn that one time sauce into three delicious meals. Check out some other great recipes here.
So on Night 1 – I might have rigatoni, garlic bread and a nice salad.
Night 2 – I will utilize some of the sauce and make a bean & beef chili with some homemade cornbread.
Night 3 – I will again utilize the sauce and make some Chicken Tortilla soup
And any leftover sauce after I will freeze.
Additional sauce makings would be putting about 2.5 cups of sauce into my blender and blend it into the perfect pizza sauce. Using the pillsbury pizza dough I would make a pepper, onion and pepperoni pizza. A perfect lunch!
Of course there is so much more you can do with leftover sauce to make it great again. Please let me know of some recipes you might create.
Yummy in the tummy
