Mars Food UK-owned brand Dolmio has launched 7 Vegetables Pasta Sauce in three flavours.  Mediterranean Roasted Veg, Sun Ripened Tomato & Basil, and Sun Ripened Tomato & Chilli each come in a 350g jar and are packed with vegetables. Mediterranean Roasted Veg, for example, features aubergine, red and yellow peppers, basil and courgettes.  The sauces are made with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, and contain two of the recommended five daily portions of fruit and vegetables.   "We’re excited to launch Dolmio 7 Vegetables Pasta Sauce, a jar full of seven different varieties of delicious veg, designed to help the whole family pack more flavour, variety and vegetables into their diet," said Giulia Somma, marketing manager at Mars Food. "Our ambition at Dolmio® is to help more families enjoy drama-free dinnertimes together by providing healthy products which are quick to prepare and, of course, delicious. She added: "At the start of 2021, Mars Food committed to deliver 5.5 billion healthy meals globally by 2025 – including adding 4 billion servings of vegetables in the next 5 years across the world. Dolmio 7 Vegetables Pasta Sauce is a great example of some of the innovation we’re bringing to deliver on our goal and help the UK eat more fruit and vegetables as each serving contains two of your five a day.”
