Marinara sauce is one of the many low-carb ingredients I use on a regular basis. I always have a jar in the fridge and use it to dress my zucchini noodles, cauli-rice, fish, steak and even in soups and stews. This marinara is also perfect with eggs and quick skillet meals.
It works just like pizza sauce and you can use it on any low-carb pizza as topping, with zoodles or as a dip with homemade Keto Breadsticks.
This Italian sauce is a keto staple. Once you make your own pizza sauce, you will never go back to store bought!

Ingredients (makes about 1 1 /4
1 cup cherry tomatoes or regular tomatoes, chopped (150 g/ 5.3 oz)
about 1 cup fresh basil leaves
2 cloves garlic
1 shallot or small onion (30 g/ 1.1 oz)
4 tbsp tomato paste, unsweetened (60 g/ 2.1 oz)
1 /4 extra virgin olive oil (60 ml/ 2 fl oz)sea salt and ground pepper, to taste
Instructions
Wash and drain the tomatoes and fresh basil. Peel the onion and garlic.
Place most of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. You may need to dice the onion and mash the garlic before to make sure there are no large pieces left.
If you prefer a chunky texture, leave some tomatoes and basil aside, dice and add to the smooth sauce. When done, place in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to a week. To keep it fresh for longer, pour a thin layer of extra virgin olive oil on top and store for up to 2 weeks.
Marinara sauce is perfect as topping on low-carb pizza!
