All of these sauces are phenomenal. They have a rich flavor. I really like the classic vodka sauce. The jars and labels are really cool, too! They make a good addition to a gift basket.

Black Olives Paste

First to recommend

Description

This paste has a strong flavor but it can be easily balanced with the right cracker. I like bagel chips the best - they can stand up to the paste - especially the sesame or herb ones.

Artichoke Tomato Bruschetta Spread and Dip

First to recommend

Description

This works great as a dip - I really like it with bagel chips (for when I don't want to toast bread (lazy, I know). Obviously it works really well as a traditional bruschetta topping. I like it with a little salt.

This pasta completes my trifecta of pasta colors of the Italian flag (nerd, I know, but it makes a good gift basket). This pasta combines some of the more delicate wine flavors to create a prefectly pink and delicious linguini

Trader Joe's Two Buck Chuck (Charles Shaw Blend Chardonnay)

7 people recommended this item

Description

You really can't be $2 bottles of wine. They really are classic flavors that can be elevated with the right meal. Not the most complex and interesting flavors but they certainly get the job done and are good for a casual spaghetti dinner.
