The jar once opened can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days, so maybe have spag bol on Monday and penne with grated cheese and sauce later on in the week. Currently the larger size jar is on half price, so a great cheap meal accompaniment for larger families.

Expected more

This sauce is a decent option for a quick and easy meal, with a tasty flavor and nutritious ingredients, but it lacks depth and complexity, making it feel one-dimensional. While it's a convenient choice, I wouldn't recommend it for those seeking a more sophisticated culinary experience.

Family favourite

Tasty and easy to prepare. Good, hearty family meal. Trusted and reliable brand. Add chicken and vegetables of choice along with some garlic bread or a side salad. Delicious evening meal

Nice Change

We usually have a different brand of pasta bake sauce but we have been unable to get it so we thought we would try this one and add tuna and cheese to it. We really enjoyed it and it was just as tasty as our usual brand we get. So I would purchase this in the future and I would alternate between this brand and the other one we buy. Hi

Nice pasta bake

Works well, I added chicken to up the protein. Could have mentioned approximate amounts of dry pasta to cook which would be the right amount for the sauce. Or the amount of cooked pasta I think I added too much as there wasn't much sauce. Saves on cooking time compared to the ones you add dry pasta and put in the oven, certainly in my oven, they seem to take forever.

Really creamy and tasty sauce!

These pasta bake sauces are so quick and easy to use and help to create a great family meal. They are full of flavour and can be added straight to pasta then just grate some cheese on top and you're done! We also added some vegetables in ours, and I've added sausages in the past too. A very tasty sauce that makes a great and convenient meal.

Rich & creamy sauce

Tasty baking sauce with a thick, creamy consistency. Quick and convenient for making a pasta bake. I couldn't detect much cheese in the flavour, so if I use it again I would add some strong cheddar to the mix and/or add a cheese topping. Good size jar, ideal for a family meal or batch-cooking.

Tastyyyy

Fabulous sauce, must have for your cupboard. It is very nice flavour and thick. I tried this sauce as per the instructions but also with ready made pasta and it turned out very nice. Would definitely get again.

Very creamy, rich tomato.

This pasta sauce is a very creamy, rich tomato sauce. It's an easy family meal to make, albeit it takes a while in the oven. But it's the kind of meal that allows you to get on with other jobs in the meantime. The added melted cheese on top is the icing on the cake, and then paired with some garlic bread. There's also the option to add in your own additional ingredients should you wish, like chorizo, pepperoni, pepper, chillies, amd such like. Lovely, and I'd buy it again.
