cindi's red sauce for pasta
(1 RATING)
I made this recipe for dinner one night and just kept adding what I thought might taste good together for a different sauce. It really kicks up the flavor of a jarred sauce. We loved it!! It turns out very thick. You can add your favorite cheeses to this recipe also. Enjoy!
