Home-cooked meals are the ultimate expression of love and new RAGÚ Kettle Cooked sauces make it easier than ever to create delicious meals that taste like you spent all day cooking. RAGÚ brand has teamed up with Lasagna Love this year to deliver RAGÚ Kettle Cooked sauces to Lasagna Love local volunteers in four markets to help them prepare hundreds of lasagnas to be delivered to families in need.
Megan Frank, Senior Vice President, Marketing, Mizkan America, Inc., the maker of RAGÚ stated – “We are very excited to partner with Lasagna Love again this year to support their mission to help communities nationwide.” “We believe ‘homemade’ doesn’t have to mean spending all day in the kitchen, new RAGÚ Kettle Cooked sauces offer a smart shortcut with a rich and savory homemade taste that makes mealtime even easier.”
The new RAGÚ Kettle Cooked sauces that are made with premium ingredients that include crushed tomato, basil, oregano and fresh garlic start with slow-simmering in large kettles. The result is an elevated sauce quality and flavor that makes it easier to create homemade meals without all the time and effort of cooking from scratch.
RAGÚ Kettle Cooked sauces features three delicious flavors that include Marinara, Roasted Garlic and Tomato Basil. They can be used to create a versatile range of dishes, including pasta, soups, dips and much more. RAGÚ’s Kettle Cooked sauces are Non-GMO Project Verified with NO added sugar. In July, RAGÚ Kettle Cooked sauce will be available in a 24-ounce jar at select retailers throughout the United States, including Meijer and Kroger stores. Beginning in August, the new sauce will be expanding availability and available at additional national retail stores, including Target.
Lasagna Love will be celebrating National Lasagna Day through a calendar of activities that include live-stream events with guest chefs and social-media influencers, local-level events where delicious homemade lasagnas will be delivered to homeless shelters, retirement homes, food banks and more.
Rhiannon Menn, founder of Lasagna Love stated – “Lasagna is so much more than just a meal to us. For us, it’s a symbol of goodwill and kindness and opportunity to deliver a home-cooked dish with love and respect and help strengthen the bonds between communities, friends and families.” “With over 45,000 volunteers in all 50 states, we’re proud of the work our community volunteers have done and are honored to partner with RAGÚ to inspire more people to join our mission of serving others.”
