I love Italian food. I cook a lot of it around my home. I have a lot of Italian relatives which their heritage was from Northern Italy. This is different from your typical red meat sauce. Pair this with my Outstanding Northern Italian Lasagna. You will be in heaven. I love all of the flavors in this thick red sauce. Enjoy!!
