Spinoff to Christmas Eve Menu

Does anyone have a tried and true great sauce recipe? Also...what brand of canned items do you use? I am trying to experiment and not finding what I am looking for.

Use the Giada (from Everyday Italian)'s quick marina sauce recipe. It is simple and easy. I use it all the time. I think it is on Foodtv.com

if im making baked ziti or anything for a big crowd i always buy sauce from my favorite italian restuarant...they prob will sell it to you..otherwise if im home i just use ragu and add all fresh spices to it to make it somewhat my own...parsely, basil, oregano, even a packet or two of sugar, red peppe,r salt, and black pepper..not sure if i was a big helpChat Icon

I buy the can of whole peeled plum tomatoes and put them in the blender. I like that better then the puree or sauce. I do 4 large cans and 1 can of paste.

I always make my own sauce, let me know if you want the recipe.
