A quick and simple marinara sauce made with tomato paste and spices. Great for pizzas and dipping.
I make this marinara sauce often. It's so simple and delicious and can be whipped up in no time. I never buy store bought marinara sauce because this is so easy and I usually have all the ingredients on hand (it's also probably cheaper than store bought). This will be your new favorite marinara sauce soon too.

Tomato paste is the main ingredient in this sauce. I always have tomato paste in my pantry. It's useful in so many recipes and has great tomato flavor. All that's needed for this recipe is a well-stocked spice cabinet (just common spices), tomato paste, and water.

Easy Marinara Sauce
Prep time: under 10 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
1 6oz can tomato paste
6-12 oz water
1-2 Tbsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp onion powder
1 Tbsp dried basil
1 tsp oregano
salt and pepper to taste
parmesan (optional)
red pepper flakes (optional)
Empty the can of tomato paste into a small bowl. Add the water (I refill the tomato paste can as a measurement) a little at a time, stirring until the sauce is the consistency you desire.
Add spices and stir well until combined (you may want to add a little more water). Taste and adjust seasoning as required.
The sauce is ready to use immediately but tastes best once it has set a while for the flavors to meld.
Makes about 2 cups of marinara sauce (about 4 servings). Use as a pizza sauce or as a dip for bread sticks, mozzarella sticks, garlic bread, calzones or stromboli, whatever you like.
Enjoy.
