Make a homemade pizza with it. If you put lots of toppings and cheese on it, it will help mask the flavor your not liking so much.
Give your answer to this question below!
try adding some garlic, maybe some Italian Sausage, some Italian seasonings, some mushrooms, green peppers, ground beef, onions, just about anything can make the flavors better..
Look under http://www.recipesource.com for some pasta sauce recipes
You could add onion, garlic, herbs, spices, etc. and try to make them taste better. Or you could invite some people over and cook pasta for them. Another thing to try would be make lasagna out of them. The rest of the ingredients should cover up the taste somewhat.
I would experiement with them to make them taste to your likings or give them away. Just tell the person that they are still good but you accidently bought an extra jar.
feed the poor.
Make Sloppy Joes? Mix in some pork and put it on a bun with some extra seasoning??????????
If they are tomato based sauces, you can always Dr those sauces up!
Take some fresh tomatoes and cut out the little thingy, then chop them up, and put them on a cookie sheet with some garlic cloves chopped up, put a little olive oil and s&p on the whole mess and pop them in a 500 degree oven-that will roast them and give them color (a little black is good) Put that in the sauce with some fresh chopped basil. That should do it…
The next best thing to fresh chopped basil is basil in a tube. I swear-you can get it in the produce isle. Squeeze some of that in the mix, like a tablespoon-tastes really good.
Have fun cooking!
1 15 oz. can of tomato sauce
2 cloves fresh garlic
1/2 onion, chopped
2 tbsp. dried parsley
2 tbsp. dried basil
Put everything in a blender. Blend.
Heat in a saucepan on medium heat, add 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese. Toss with pasta.
well my italian mother in law, makes a spicy pasta sauce, using onions, garlic, any hot sauce, ( frank’s hot sauce works well) and she’ll put anchovies in it, and serve on pasta, sounds gross but it’s pretty good unless of course you don’t like it hot, in that case avoid this recipe
I would return them to the store or email the company that made the sauce and tell them you don’t like it and ask for a refund.
