😲 I do have some Earth Balance buttery spread chillin' in the fridge that I could have included

another time ! another time !

Just keep it in mind. A couple TBS of butter adds miles of flavor and unctuousness to your sauce (even if it isn't Rao's)

I feel like I couldn't taint Rao's like that 😲 but will definitely try it with a lesser sauce sometime soon

Oh dear lord. For simplicity try this https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1015178-marcella-hazans-tomato-sauce

If you're feeling more adventurous try this: http://foodmack.com/recipe/new-york-times-classic-marinara-sauce-sugo-alla-marinara/

For something similar to Raos, but far better try my bolognese sauce (warning: it takes all day - and honestly I only make it once or twice a year, but it's always rave reviews): http://coolcathotfood.com/bolognese-sauce-pasta/

Awesome! Love the second recipe!! The specification of 'GOOD' olive oil is no joke .. it's like totally different products, I'll dunk bread in good olive oil and love it, but "olive oil" I'll just think of more like regular vegetable oil

if I do it I might go all the way and use san marzano tomatoes and see if I can beat Rao's πŸ˜†

I'm vegan so have to skip the bolognese

It's possible that a vegan bolognese is a viable thing.. but it'd just call for a different recipe from the ground up, there isn't like a tweak or two that would do it

thanks!!

YES. San marzano tomatoes and a great olive oil and you'll be in heaven. And yeah. some great bread to sop everything up.

and blog about it on Steemit, obv

look! look! I made sauce. Just like you wanted me to. 😊
