While I love to add all kinds of things to jarred pasta sauce, every
once in a while I just want pasta and a basic tomato sauce and someone
suggested using marinara instead.

I prefer jarred pasta sauces even though I know homemade would be
better. I usually stuck with Barilla or Classico as I hate Ragu' and
Prego. Now I see that supermarkets are carrying pasta sauces in foil
pouches in the freezer section. Just heat up and pour over your
favorite pasta. I may try that soon.

I think I will try the Harry's Tomato Sauce recipe that was included
in this thread.
