My husband would eat pasta every day if I let him. Sometimes he likes a meaty sauce and sometimes he prefers a simple marinara. This marinara is easy to make, requires basic ingredients, and can be made in about half an hour. What’s so nice about this is that it freezes really well too. Just remove from the freezer, let it thaw out and all that robust flavor is still there. This is perfect for those busy nights when you need to prepare dinner in a hurry…enjoy!
