Hello and happy fall!<\/p>\n
If you read my blog you already know this\u2014I’m Italian, and I love <\/strong>pasta. While I’ve been making my own homemade noodles for about a year, I’ve been hesitating on the sauce. Who wants that mess? You have to peel tomatoes and the juice splashes everywhere, etc. The list goes on. Or so I thought. Turns out I was wrong. Yes, it can be messy <\/em>to make your own sauce, but it’s not that bad and it’s totally worth it. I never should have hesitated. I now LOVE making my own Simple Homemade Marinara Sauce with Garlic & Basil.<\/p>\n Not only is it way healthier to eat, but it makes your entire home smell amazing and it tastes so much better than that stuff from the jar. There is nothing better than the mix of fresh-snipped basil and ripe tomatoes with a splash of olive oil. There is a reason pasta marinara is a household staple, and it’s not just because it’s a cheap, quick fix. It’s really good, too. Pasta marinara is so simple, yet when you get a realllllly<\/em> good noodle with an impeccable sauce, there’s just nothing better for a crisp, cool night!<\/p>\n My garden has been producing an overwhelming amount of tomatoes so my partner and I are hurrying to make sure none of our homegrown tomatoes go to waste. With a half dozen jars of salsa under our belt, we moved onto canning the following marinara sauce recipe.<\/p>\n Go ahead and give it a try. Let me know what you think!<\/p>\n Cheers and happy eating!<\/p>\n Jocelyn<\/p>\n * Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links. As always, all opinions are\u00a0my own!<\/em><\/p>\n
