SUPER Simple Low Carb Marinara Sauce Recipe – Step by Step

Marinara Sauces at the store are often filled with sugar, additives and thickeners, our Low Carb Marinara Sauce has none of those ingredients. But it does have plenty of flavor!

We dip our Cheese Chips in it, top our Beef Schnitzels with it, and toss our vegetables in it. This is one versatile, and delicious, sauce.

Our Low Carb Marinara Sauce makes 25 ounces/700g of sauce, of which a serving is ¼ cup. The recipe makes 15 serves.

The sauce will keep in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 3 weeks – if it even lasts that long!
