The secret to effortless weeknight cooking: a master sauce that does the heavy lifting for you.

Meet my All-Purpose Tomato Gravy, boldly spiced, naturally rich, and endlessly customizable whether you’re tossing it with roasted veggies, simmering it with legumes, or folding in your favorite protein. My favorite is adding it to casseroles, stews, pastas, and pulav!

Make a batch over the weekend, refrigerate promptly for 3-4 days or freeze individual portions for easy weekday meals and thank yourself all week.
