Win a $100 Visa Gift Card/Meal Makeover Kit and a Ragu Review!

This is a sponsored review from BlogHer and Ragú.

What exciting news to find Ragú® Old World Style® Traditional Pasta Sauce now has two servings of veggies in every half cup.
We are massive pasta eaters in the Picky Palate house, so I was thrilled to try Ragu’s new pasta sauce with all the extra veggies packed in.

I found that the new formulation doesn’t actually have any different ingredients than the old formula. They’ve just packed more veggies into the formula to get to 2 servings of veggies per half cup (vs. 1 serving per half cup). The taste is the same great taste and they want to assure moms that the sauce they’re used to and have been feeding their families for years hasn’t changed.

We tried the Skillet Pasta and Beef Dinner with our new veggie packed Ragu and the kids went nuts for it. Before I added the sauce, I made sure I tried a spoon of each (the old and the new) and I enjoyed the chunkiness of the new sauce because I knew it was packed with lots of vegetables!

The dinner was a huge success and it literally took minutes to prepare. I love pulling out quick and simple recipes during the busy school week and that is exactly what Ragu helps us with. A great pasta sauce packed with lots of vegetables. Mom is happy and the kids are happy!

Come be one of the first to taste Ragu with 2 servings of veggies in every half cup over at Ragu’s Facebook Page .

    We’re on a low carb diet, so I looooove making spaghetti squash with ground turkey marinara sauce! Thanks for the chance to win!

    Spaghetti. Sometimes with meat sauce, sometimes with just marinara (I prefer it without meat). Quick, easy, delicious!

  3. MamaFeelgood

    I love a recipe that my friend made up using pasta, 1 jar of Ragu, Stouffer’s spinach souflee, and cream cheese.
    YUMMY!

    I keep a jar of alfredo sauce in the pantry that I throw together with pasta, fresh broccoli (cooked in the pasta water) and some chicken cooked in the microwave. It takes 30 minutes or less to prepare and I have a complete meal for my family.

    I am happy to say we love Ragu, even my italian husband LOL

    We grab a bag of already cooked ground beef from the freezer, dump it in a pot with italian seasoning and a jar of ragu and use it to top some whole grain pasta

    Relatively healthy and FAST

    My favorite quick and easy meal it baked ziti…just throw some cooked ziti noodles, ragu sauce, ricotta cheese and top with mozzerella in the oven and walla!

  7. Susan S.

    My favorite pasta for those busy nights is sphaghetti with ground beef mixed in with the sauce. It is delicious and has almost every single food group. If we add a smoothie, we would be all set.

  8. Robin

    Our go to pasta dish is shells stuffed with frozen meatballs, then covered in spaghetti sauce and cheese and baked. Yum!

  9. linda

    I pick up a rotisserie chicken on the way home from work and serve with angel hair pasta – sometimes plain and sometimes with sauce

  11. Adrienne

    I have to say on those nights that are crazy with kid activities, spaghetti and turkey meatballs are our fast go-to meal. Coincidentally, we use Ragu sauce too!!! It is the kid’s favorite.

  12. Holly Lofthouse

    Red and White Pasta is a HIT at my house on the weekdays!! Ragu Traditional spaghetti sauce and Alfredo sauce each poured over penne noodles with mozzerella cheese!! DELISH 🙂

  13. Heather H.

    For a quick go to dinner I love using Ragu to make chicken parmesan or good ole’ spaghetti and meatballs!

  14. Jey

    My favorite quick pasta meal is probably my version of pasta fresca from Noodles & Co.

    It really only takes 5 minutes of prep and 10 minutes of cooking, and I have a meal ready for several days! Reheating it on a pan makes it more delicious on the next day! 😀

  15. Margaret

    Lasagna isn’t an easy meal to make, but it’s delicious, and there are always leftovers during the week!

  16. Janssen

    Spaghetti pie! YUM – how can you go wrong with cream cheese, sour cream, AND cheddar cheese?

  17. Lynda

    Whole Wheat Penne with marinara and lots of freshly grated parmesan cheese!! Oh and don’t forget the salad and garlic bread 🙂

  18. Chicago Cuisine Critique

    Any combination of pasta is delicious. It is one of my favorite go to meals – quick, easy, and super tasty. My favorite during the busy work week would have to be any type of stuffed pasta (packaged tortellini and/or ravioli) and red sauce.

  19. atpanda

    I love throwing together stuffed shells. Easy, yummy, totally filling, and gives us leftovers for lunch the next day.
