Doctored-Up Store Bought Marinara Sauce, Tastes Like Homemade image

Pasta is a staple food for any kitchen. It is inexpensive and filling. Not many of us have time to start marinara sauce from scratch so this recipe allows you to use a store bought sauce and then add your own spin to it. It is easy to make and freezes well. I use it for anything from spaghetti, manacotti, lasagna to chicken parmesan.
