If your house is anything like ours, my guess is you’re pretty busy running around like a crazy person during the after school hours most days of the week, leaving little or no time to think about dinner. Between baseball, CCD, dance and flag football, our nights are crazy busy. We need to plan our nightly meals ahead of time and sneak in some healthy ones when we can! I’m a lucky girl, considering Chris likes to do most of the cooking around here, but STILL! We both feel like chauffeurs most nights! Plus, everyone wants to be fed! Kids typically start yelling, “what are we having for dinner?”
We’ve got a great dinner idea here for you to try with your family, especially on those busy nights! New RAGÚ® Simply Chunky Marinara Pasta Sauce is made with 100% olive oil and contains no added sugar, making it a great choice for a healthy recipe! So the next time you’re at the grocery store, check out this Ragu sauce and use if for all your weeknight dinner ideas! Here’s ours!
