Ok you guys, so I made my first Marinara Sauce ever! Seriously, if you would’ve told me 2 years ago that I’d be making my own marinara sauce I would’ve laughed while opening up a can of store bought marinara sauce to pour over my spaghetti.
Well within the last 2 years the way I’ve been looking at food has totally changed. I went Gluten Free, yes. But I also try to avoid foods with GMO’s, or foods basically made from junk. Because for me, eating food that is made with all kinds of chemicals and junk = me feeling sick and bloated. There’s a saying “if you can’t pronounce the ingredients, don’t eat it”!
So anyways, this brings me back to this 15 Minute Marinara Sauce I made today.
You guys…this is Super easy to make! So easy, in fact you may never buy a jar of marinara sauce again from the store!
Oh yeah, and if you want to make a bigger batch, this freezes for up to 3 months! And did I mention you only need to use 1 pan to make this?! I don’t know about you, but I do not like doing dishes. 🙂
This 15 Minute Marinara Sauce is not only super easy to make, but it requires less dishes, and is healthy.
I like to use this Marinara Sauce to dip my Zesty Zucchini Fries in, or to use it in this Skillet Parmesan Chicken dish. I also use it for these Low Carb Portobello Mushroom Pizzas!
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do, and after you make this please leave a comment for me below! It’s really helpful for me and other readers. 🙂 And don’t forget to take a picture and Hashtag it #Tastefulventure on Instagram so I can see!
Enjoy!
