We have been asked by the team at Napolina, the UK’s favourite Italian cooking brand, to find 250 UK MNers with children at home to try a selection of their latest range and to share feedback on MN.

Napolina say “we are excited to launch a new range of No Added Sugar pasta sauces to complement our existing range of over 130 products including pasta, sauces, canned tomatoes, olive oil, pulses, pizzeria and balsamic vinegar. The sauces enable tasty and convenient meals to be created, whilst reducing ‘added sugar’ intake. Flavours are centred around Italian family classic meals and have been developed to appeal to parents and children alike.

All sauces have a smooth texture and are available in seven flavour variants:

~ Bolognese pasta sauce
~ Pasta sauce for Macaroni Cheese
~ Pasta sauce for Meatballs
~ Creamy Cheese and Tomato pasta sauce
~ Red Lasagne pasta sauce
~ White Lasagne pasta sauce
~ Tomato with Hidden Veg pasta sauce

Available in a 480g/500g jar for families of four or more (RRP £1.69), the sauces are perfect for creating Italian inspired family favourites on busy weekdays or leisurely weekends alike”.

Selected testers will be sent 4 jars each (variety of flavours) and asked to try them with their recipes / dishes at home over a week and then asked to share their feedback on a thread on MN and by completing a short feedback survey. They will also be sent a pack of pasta. For a list of ingredients, please see: here

NB the survey and feedback will need to be completed by 7 March latest – products will be sent out w/c 22 Feb. Please only apply if you’re around during this time and able to test 4 jars of sauce and share feedback then.

Selected testers who add feedback as required will be entered into a prize draw where one winner will get a £300 John Lewis voucher.

If you’d like to take part, please add your details here and we will be in touch with those selected soon.

Thanks and good luck
MNHQ

Done! It would be great to have a non sugary ready done pasta sauce for when there is no time to make my own.

All done!

ScarlettDarling · 15/02/2016 08:49

Done! Like the low sugar aspect of these sauces, would be interested to try them

lolabunny13 · 15/02/2016 09:50

Sounds brilliant, happy to try anything new. Finger crossed XX

Done. We eat LOADS of pasta (esp as we have 3 boys who eat a lot!)

onitlikeacarbonnet · 15/02/2016 18:24

Done.
Haven't had a trial for a while and this is right up our pasta-loving family's street Grin

DorsetMum1 · 15/02/2016 20:10

Hope I get selected to try these. With a diabetic husband and pasta loving family, these no added sugar sauces sound great.

Only1scoop · 15/02/2016 21:44

Signed up and hoping for some sauce in my life Smile

RuddyHellItsSoftCell · 15/02/2016 22:13

Done and now have my fingers crossed.

Tigerblue · 16/02/2016 08:45

Really hope I get to take part in this. Sugar doesn't need to be added to sauces.

bluebump · 16/02/2016 09:41

I've signed up, I am a veggie too. We have pasta twice a week when I work late and I can't think of anything else quick to cook so would love to try a new sauce to go with it.

Scholes34 · 16/02/2016 13:56

I've yet to find a ready-made cheese sauce that is better than a home made one for macaroni cheese. Perhaps Napolina will convince me otherwise.

Northernexile · 16/02/2016 23:17

Done! My pasta fiends would love to try them out!

TeaPleaseBob · 17/02/2016 10:40

Sounds good, pasta always seems to be the fall back option when we need a quick and easy meal
