I have to hand it to all of you who have kids heading back to school in the coming weeks. While there is excitement, I know there is also anxiety about new schedules, new experiences, new teachers & friends. School supply shopping. New clothes & shoes. Medical appointments. Juggling who is picking up which kid from which activity. Oh, and your regular daily lives, too! As someone without kiddos at home, I am in awe of your balancing abilities, truly.
One thing I regularly hear from friends this time of year is: What can I make for dinner that will satisfy my brood?? What will be tasty, healthy, and oh by the way, please those picky palates? Again, I am amazed by your creativity and stamina.
But in this day and age of convenience, I know it can be tough to trying to find pantry staples you can rely on. Especially on those days when time gets away from you, and you just want to sit down and have a big ole’ glass of wine (or 3, whatever), right?
I have to admit that even though I don’t have kiddo & school schedules to contend with, our household has its’ own version of hectic nights. As my husband and I get older (well, maybe not ME–I stopped aging when I hit 40), we are looking more at the food we eat. And we are trying to be healthier in the choices we make.
Then I stumbled on Wildtree.
While I make as much as possible from scratch, some days it’s appealing to just order a pizza and call it a day. But I worry about the fillers in food, where ingredients come from, and try to balance the good, the bad, and yes sometimes the ugly (bacon will always be an option–sorry arteries). Wildtree has so many great spice blends, sauces, marinades & skillet meals that are additive and preservative-free, as well as options for those with limited diets, I had to give it a try.
Hook. Line. Sinker.
I love how these items blend into my pantry in a way that amps up our weeknight options. And it’s fun to unleash my creativity on new recipes. I hope you’ll give it a try and see what kinds of delicious–and healthy!–meals you come to rely on! This 4-Ingredient Hearty Spaghetti Sauce is just the start!

- Brown the beef in a large skillet. Drain any excess fat from pan.
- Over medium heat, add to skillet tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, & Wildtree Hearty Spaghetti Blend. Stir to incorporate.
- Add ground beef to tomato sauce mixture. Add salt & pepper to taste. Allow to simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. While pasta sauce cooks, cook pasta according to package instructions. Once pasta is al dente (cooked through, but firm to taste), drain and plate.
- Top pasta with sauce, and sprinkle Parmesan cheese as desired.
Disclaimer: I am normally not a big fan of lots of pre-made stuff. While there is always a place in my pantry for certain items, I was skeptical to say the least when a friend introduced me to Wildtree.
I even used their Bloody Mary Mix (yes, that's right!) in a recent Gazpacho recipe. So. Darned. Good.
But I really do love the products. And I feel good about serving them to my family & friends, too. Win/win!
