Votes: 2

Time: 1 hour 20 min.

Marinara sauce is ideal for many Italian dishes. Homemade marinara sauce is incredibly easy to make using canned tomatoes in their own juice. It's delicious and rich, and unlike store-bought, it's made with only natural ingredients and is sugar- and gluten-free. You can make it a day in advance and refrigerate it. It'll be even more flavorful once it's allowed to steep. The next day, reheat it and use it in your dishes, or simply toss it with cooked pasta and enjoy.
