Susie's Tips and Tricks
Pronto pasta is a specially made pasta that can be cooked with the sauce (this will not work with traditional pastas). It doesn't produce a bunch of starch and thus works beautifully for quick, easy meals.
Frozen meatballs are a great weeknight addition to lots of meals. I always keep a package on hand.
