Wildtree released its Italian Simmering Sauce as part of their Fall 2015 Product Line. I love the flavor of this sauce and it is so versatile! I had initially ordered one bottle and immediately ordered 5 more because this was a Wildtree sauce I wanted to have on hand as a staple in my food pantry.
One of the things I love about Wildtree, other than that it is beyond healthy for you being organic, GMO-free and often Gluten-free, is that we provide recipes, searchable by product, type of meal and ingredient. For the Italian Simmering Sauce, this is a screenshot of the available recipes (with more being added often):
The first thing I whipped up was the Italian Simmered Steak Tips…it was, of course, PHENOMENAL! Now, for Fall/Winter I am definitely a crockpot kinda girl. I love being able to start something in the morning and by the time mid-afternoon rolls around and my sons start strolling in from school, the house is filled with a delicious aroma. You know, the kind of aroma they are going to remember as adults with a warm, fuzzy feeling 🙂
I made a version of the Italian Pot Roast (I didn’t have all the veggies at the time and was a tad lazy to go to the store) and again, a huge hit!
I started it in the morning – very easy prep, I just prefer to brown beef a bit before throwing it in the slow cooker. The meat comes out so tender and bursting with flavor. This crockpot meal is sure to become a family hit!
