A Pantry Staple with Gourmet Flavor

Le Sauce & Co.'s Classic Marinara isn’t your average jarred sauce. It’s crafted with slow-simmered tomatoes, garlic, onions, and a perfect blend of herbs that bring out the rich, savory depth you’d expect from a sauce that’s been bubbling on a Nonna’s stove all day. But here’s the beauty — it’s ready to go when you are, making it ideal for busy nights when you still want to put something truly delicious on the table.

Ingredients You Probably Already Have

This recipe keeps things simple with just a few pantry staples and one standout sauce:

2 servings of spaghetti (or your favorite pasta shape)
1 pouch of Le Sauce & Co. Classic Marinara Pasta Sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
Grated parmesan cheese and fresh basil, for garnish (optional)

That’s it — just four basic ingredients, but the result is far from ordinary.

How to Make It

Start by boiling a large pot of salted water and cook the spaghetti until al dente, according to package instructions. Meanwhile, warm Le Sauce & Co.’s Classic Marinara in a skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil to bring out its rich, velvety texture.

Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and immediately toss it in the warm marinara sauce. Give it a good stir to make sure every strand is coated in that vibrant, tomato-forward flavor. Serve it in bowls with a shower of grated parmesan and a few torn basil leaves if you have them on hand.

In just 20 minutes, you’ve got a plate of spaghetti that tastes like it came from a neighborhood trattoria.

Why This Recipe Works

This dish is all about balance — the comforting chew of perfectly cooked pasta, the brightness and depth of a well-made marinara, and just a touch of richness from the olive oil and cheese. The secret weapon, of course, is the sauce. Le Sauce & Co.’s Classic Marinara delivers bold, balanced flavor without any added sugars, artificial ingredients, or preservatives — just honest, wholesome ingredients done right.

It’s a perfect go-to for nights when you're tired but still want something real. It’s kid-friendly, adult-approved, and endlessly versatile. Want to toss in sautéed vegetables, grilled chicken, or plant-based meatballs? Go for it. But even all on its own, this recipe is a knockout.
