You’ll want to keep a jar or two of this pantry staple on hand at all times.
It’s also just begging to be doctored up.
In short, marinara sauce is a superstar.

But, what is marinara sauce exactly?
It’s famously kid-friendly and tangy enough to stand up to rich ingredients like cheese and sausage.
Try a few different brands, decide on your fave, and verify you’re never without a jar.

Since the pizza cooks in acast-iron pan, you’re guaranteed a golden, crisp crust.
With shrimp, clams, and mussels, this big batch bowl of goodness is sure to impress.
It’s a delicious canvas for marinara, salami, and thinly sliced delicata squash.

Another perk: with this recipe there’s no need to prepare any side dishes.
Your protein (sausage) and veg (broccoli) are nestled into the saucy pasta.

Yes, you’re able to make lasagna in the slow cooker!

There’s no need to boil the noodles first.
Just layer them with marinara sauce, cheese, and thawed frozen spinach for a boost of veggie power.
The result is perfectly cooked comfort food.

Everything goes straight into a baking dish, including a jar of marinara.
The medley spends about an hour in the oven, and comes out a winner.
