Marinara Sauce

Written by on in Sauces

Whenever we have pasta, my family prefers a meat sauce. But sometimes, you need a classic, simple serving of marinara sauce. Whenever I make chicken or eggplant parmesan, I serve it with a side of spaghetti with this marinara sauce. If I have a small amount of sauce left, I freeze it in 4 ounce containers to use when I make fried mozzarella sticks. This sauce is so easy to make, using ingredients that you most likely have in your pantry. In only 45 minutes, you’ll have a fresh, tasty sauce fit for a King!
