Roasted Marinara Sauce

Easy, bold, rich homemade Marinara Sauce. Delicious and easy way to prepare those extra summer tomatoes from the garden.

Roasted Marinara Sauce how do I love thee?  Let me count the ways:  on gf pasta, on spiralized vegetables, with baked Mozzarella sticks, on cannelini beans, yes, cannelini beans (don’t judge until you try!)  and most of all straight from the dripping spoonful from the food processor! Yummmy, yummy!

This recipe is so unbelievably easy!  I mean how hard is it to wash the tomatoes, no peeling involved and quarter the tomatoes?  Now the onions you do have to peel but then you just quarter them. It does not get much easier than that.

This was the recipe I used all summer when I had too few tomatoes to can but too many to eat alone or on salads before they would go bad.

You can spice this Roasted Marinara Sauce up by adding red pepper flakes or any hot sauce you like during the food processing step.

I like that this is a basic marinara sauce that I can add meat, other spices or veggies to and create a whole new taste.  Rich soup anyone?

You owe it to yourself to try this easy, delicious Roasted Marinara Sauce. Your family and friends will think you are the Marinara queen or king!  You can thank me best by sharing it with others!

Enjoy!

P.S.  This freezes well, so go ahead and make a big batch!
