I'm happy to have found this site! This recipe is the most silky and delicious marinara sauce I have tried. And super easy with only four ingredients. It's made with a stick of butter, what's not to love? I team this sauce with Foodie Mama's Melt in Your Mouth Meatballs. I have a food, wine and travel blog located at foodiemama.net I'll be posting some of my favorite recipes on here on Just a Pinch!
