The shirt stained with red sauce could likely have been stained during the meal served on Thursday, May 4, which was pepperoni pizza and salad. Since this is the only meal that includes a red sauce, the shirt was most likely added to the laundry basket on that day. Therefore, the answer is:

D Thursday
