You might have to trust the process on this one—but we have nearly 100 five-star reviewers to back us up. First, you’ll warm frozen meatballs in a mixture of pizza sauce, apple jelly, and Italian seasoning, then add them to buns, and toast the sub with mozzarella cheese in the oven. “This sauce certainly is outside-the-box and outrageously good,” says Allrecipes Allstar lutzflcat.

Chef John’s one-pan orecchiette pasta is loaded with spicy Italian sausage, arugula, and cheese in a lightly flavored chicken broth sauce. The only change reviewers make is using spinach instead of arugula if that’s what they have on hand.

This 30-minute meal relies on just seven ingredients that you likely already have in your kitchen. It’s a great option when you want a tuna noodle casserole but don’t have time to bake one, since it is made entirely on the stovetop. You can even add French fried onions as a garnish for that crispy, baked texture.

If you’ve never tried this unique chili that hails from Ohio, you’re truly missing out. The chili, seasoned with Worcestershire sauce, chocolate, cinnamon, cayenne, and cloves, is delicious on its own—but to keep it authentic, serve it as a “sauce” over spaghetti with cheese, diced onions, and kidney beans.
