From noodles made out of zucchini to a twirl of classic wheat, “pasta” is a quick way to get a hearty dinner on the table in minutes. Sure, you could top those zoodles with a spoonful of marinara straight from a jar, or you could serve your family fresh sauce made with ingredients everyone can pronounce. Our homemade marinara is so simple yet so amazingly yummy, you won’t believe you made it with your bare hands. (Which is the best part, trust us!)
