English term or phrase: recipe text - use / application

I'm proofreading a few sauce lables. The translation from Polish reads:

Application: to pizza, sandwiches, spaghetti, lasagne.

I am not happy with the phrase 'Application: to...' and would like to replace it with a more suitable English phrase and the one which comes to my mind is:

Use: pizza, sandwiches, spaghetti, lasagne.

Does anyone remember a 'fixed' phrase used in such context? Should there be a preposition? (Use: for...)

Any help much appreciated!
