"In a Tasting Table ranking of all of Rao's frozen entrées, we placed its penne arrabbiata at the top of the list. It was the perfect combination of sweet and spicy, and the fact that it was reheated from frozen did nothing to diminish the taste and quality of the sauce or the texture of the penne pasta. Plus, it was made even better with its spicy sausage and high-quality, creamy mozzarella cheese."
"You may not know that Rao's makes frozen meals, as most people are familiar with the brand primarily for its incredibly flavorful jarred pasta sauces. Yet the company is also behind a range of frozen Italian food staples, including meat lasagna, chicken parmesan, five-cheese pizza, and meatballs and sauce. Its products are elevated by a foundation of rich, savory, and flavorful sauces that are perfectly seasoned."
Rao's Made for Home frozen dinners earned top marks among 18 frozen dinner brands. The brand leverages its reputation for flavorful jarred pasta sauces in a lineup of frozen Italian staples such as meat lasagna, chicken parmesan, five-cheese pizza, and meatballs and sauce. Products emphasize rich, savory, and perfectly seasoned sauces, while portion sizes are generally smaller than competitors. The penne arrabbiata stood out for its sweet-and-spicy balance, intact sauce quality after reheating, spicy sausage, and creamy mozzarella. Rao's frozen meals are sold at Target, Stop & Shop, and Whole Foods, and some Whole Foods items on Amazon rate between 4.2 and 4.5 stars. Some consumers report a perceived decline in quality since the brand was purchased by Campbell Soup for nearly $3 billion.
