Ugh. We didn't use cheese, since the kids can't have dairy, but I don't think that could have saved it. I have made much better sauces! I was just hoping this one would work out since I had the ingredients on hand for a last minute dinner and I forgot to save the recipe I used last time on this site.

This was a great easy marinara. I used it as a sauce for my summer zucchini patties. Yummy!

Very simple and tastes great. I did add a few teaspoons of white sugar as it needed to be toned down a little.

My favorite find so far!! I don't like onions, and the only way for me to use them is in a powder. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

For a SIMPLE sauce, it turned out great (I know that more complex recipes are tastier, though). Overall taste, I'd give a 4. The ease of the recipe I give a 5. I was very pleased with this recipe! I canned tomatoes from my garden last year. I used whole tomatoes for half the sauce, and then pureed the other half (instead of using tomato puree, which I'm not really sure what that is). I also used half of a small onion instead of the powder--chopped it up and sauteed it in the oil, then added the garlic. I also added salt and pepper since the tomatoes I can have no seasoning. It was really yummy. My only complaint is that it was slightly runny--not as thick as I like, with a little excess water. I'm sure that's my fault for not using "tomato puree" though, and instead just blending a jar of my canned (not cooked) tomatoes.

Delicious! The recipe is simple, and very tasty, my family loved it. I used dried basil rather than oregano. It goes great with the fast and friendly meatball recipe.

This wasn't bad, but didn't appeal to me any more than most sauces out of a jar. The parmesan left the sauce with a grainy texture. Adding sliced turkey sausage as an attempted improvement was a bad idea, as the flavors did not blend well.

I loved the cheese in the sauce. It smelled wonderful while cooking. I can't wait for my husband to try it. I made it while he is still at work so I could see if I liked it before I served it for dinner. Thank you

My husband loved this and it was very simple to make. He really likes it as part of meatloaf parmesan and I enjoy combining it with my homemade meatballs.

I loved your choice of tomato selection; I liked the texture and appearance it gives to the finished marinara sauce. I used the DiNapoli Brand but still wanted to cut the acid taste a bit so I added ½ teaspoon of Splenda brown sugar. (Simply a personal taste preference.) I prefer the caramel flavor of brown sugar over the plain sweet flavor of white sugar and the amount I used is not enough to sweeten the sauce but it does help cut the acid tang. I also added 1 teaspoon of J.B. Jamison’s Beef Flavored Soup Base. I don’t think it is a taste you will be able to pick out as being added to the recipe as it does not overpower the tomato base of the sauce. But it does add another layer of flavor to the sauce without being overpowering.

What a great recipe! I used the sauce for pizza at a large dinner party everyone loved it and commented asking which brand I used, and they were suprised at the short cook time. I added some crushed red pepper just to spice it up some. Delicious!!!

This came out great. I made this with a chicken cutlet recipe listed on this site. I had to be careful, since my wife is Italian, and I could not make a better sauce then she does. Only variation to the recipe was adding 2 1/2 tablespoons of Italian seasoning mix in place of the parsley and oregano and adding 1 tbs of sugar.
