This is a terrific BASIC sauce to use for recipes. You'll want to add other spices to the sauce later depending on the dish you're cooking. I like to do big batches of this sauce and freeze 2 cup serving sizes to use in other recipes. I like not having to buy jarred sauces anymore. This is much healthier, tastier, and more economical and it really doesn't take a lot of time since you can do other things while the sauce is simmering. I haven't tried pureeing the sauce like others have done. I think I'll try that next time to give the sauce a smoother consistency.

I LOVE this recipe. I added just a few things and it became the most amazing sauce ever!

I added the following: Sugar, Anise (a must-have in red sauce, basil, a few red pepper flakes, red wine, and some extra garlic. I simmered it covered for the first hour, then uncovered for another hour or so while I cooked the rest of the meal.

I had five friends over for dinner and they all wanted the recipe.

This is a good basic (easy to make sauce. The only thing I did different is, I added a couple more seasonings (basil and oregano. I had seen Giada make this sauce in another recipe where she added unsalted butter a little at a time if the sauce tasted acidic so that's what I did. At the end I put it in the food processor to smooth it out, also as I had seen her do when she made this with meatballs some time ago. This is my go to recipe for marinara sauce!

I made this with chicken, mushrooms and onions, served it over pasta and topped it with Parmesan cheese. I do not can, therefore had to come up with something a bit quicker the second time around. I know this recipe is easy, but I have made it even easier, if you can believe that. If interested in the recipe, contact me at sandiesgalley.com

This was incredibly delicious. I grated all of the veggies using a food processor and sauteed them all at the same time for about 15 minutes. Simple, easy, tasty!

Great Marinara Sauce! This sauce is so great that I make a triple batch and get about 9 qts. I love finding great recipes like this because I will can it. This way it's anytime I want it and if my husband is making dinner he just has to open a jar. Not only is it better than store bought but it's less expensive.

This is a great basic marinara sauce that can be easily changed by adding ricotta cheese it make it creamy or red pepper flakes to make it a Fra Diavlo.

Love it.

I loved this marinara sauce. I made Giada's Penne with Roasted Vegetables and with this marinara and I will never buy store-bought again. I pureed the carrots, celery, onions, and garlic in the food processor first - it made the sauce thicker and smoother. After simmering an hour on the stove I found it just a bit acidic and added a little sugar and white wine. It makes a lot, I have plenty leftover in my freezer now!

I made this sauce tonight exactly like the recipe said. I grilled some chicken breasts with sea salt, fresh ground pepper, oregano and thyme and put some mozzarella cheese and fresh parmesan cheese on the chicken. With some penne noodles smothered in the sauce and the chicken on top, it made an absolutely delicious meal for the whole family! Definitely a regular meal!
