I recently received coupons to purchase two new varieties of Ragu Old World Style Pasta Sauce-Sweet Tomato Basil, and Margherita.
I am constantly searching for a better spaghetti sauce recipe, I still haven’t found one that I think is perfect. I always have thin spaghetti noodles in the cupboard, and I like jarred sauces for nights when I haven’t had time to do a long-cooking meat sauce. My husband doesn’t like Ragu (or any other jarred sauce) because he says it tastes “too sweet”, but the kids and I love it. So on quick spaghetti night, he makes himself something else to eat 
The Sweet Tomato Basil sauce was delicious by itself served over the thin spaghetti. Some small meatballs or browned italian sausage would have been the perfect touch. The kids and I ate it up and the boys both had seconds.
The Margherita sauce says it’s made with “pizza seasonings”, but it didn’t have a strong pizza-like flavor to me. Maybe more oregano than the other sauce? Anyway, I used that as dipping sauce for breadsticks because I wasn’t sure if it would work for a pizza sauce or if it would be too thin. If anyone wants to leave a suggestion in the comments for how to use pizza-flavored spaghetti sauce to make pizza, please do!

I am a pasta lover, I really like eating Spaghetti, lasagna, bake mac, Alfredo and other cooked pasta style food. I haven’t try this Ragu Old Style Pasta Sauce, I think with name and style, it will be a delicious to your pasta sauce like in spaghetti. Maybe I should try this in pizza will it be good in it?
Well, you could just use it as the base for your pizza? Spread it on the pizza base and then add toppings. That´s how my husband usually makes our pizzas
, start with a tomatoe based sauce and then just add any old thing you find in your cupboards.

Liz- I wasn’t sure if spaghetti sauce would be too thin to work as a pizza sauce. Since I never make pizza from scratch, I don’t actually know how to make pizza sauce!
