Tomato Pasta Sauce

Tomato Pasta Sauce

Everyday

Tomato pasta sauce is a versatile Italian-inspired condiment made primarily from cooked tomatoes blended with herbs, garlic, and onions. While traditional versions feature simple, whole-food ingredients, many commercial varieties contain added sugars or sodium to enhance shelf stability and flavor intensity. This sauce serves as a low-fat base for countless dishes, with nutrition profiles varying significantly between homemade recipes (often rich in lycopene) and processed options requiring closer label scrutiny.
