Basil Marinara is a classic tomato-based sauce rooted in Italian cuisine, celebrated for its simplicity and bold flavors. It is traditionally crafted from ripe tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic, onions, olive oil, and a touch of seasoning such as salt and pepper. Some variations may include herbs like oregano or a hint of red chili flakes for added depth. Rich in vitamins A and C, as well as antioxidants like lycopene found in tomatoes, Basil Marinara supports immune health and combats free radicals. The olive oil provides heart-healthy fats, while its low sugar and calorie content make it a wholesome choice. However, sodium levels can vary depending on preparation, so it's worth monitoring intake if using store-bought versions. Perfect as a pasta sauce, pizza base, or dip, Basil Marinara offers a versatile and nutritious foundation for countless meals.
