Clean Spaghetti Sauce


Ever wondered about marinara sauce and if it is healthy? Well that depends! Sometimes there is sugar added to it, but in general it is from tomatoes, so is generally ok!

I'm obsessed with pasta (switch to whole grain OR go to spaghetti squash for healthier alternatives!) and so I am always looking for new sauces to try that are clean and don't hinder my progress.

BUT! Want an extremely simple recipe to create your own?

INGREDIENTS:
1 (15 oz.) can tomato sauce, no sugar added
2 tbsp. dried basil
1 tbsp. garlic powder
1 tbsp. onion powder
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. honey
1 tsp. balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 cup water

Combine all ingredients in a pot and bring to a gentle boil. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes, being sure to stir frequently to avoid burning.

Each serving (depending on amount, but I usually use about 1/4 cup sauce) is 1/4 green and 1 tsp for the 21 Day Fix!
