<p>If making food ahead to make meal preps faster are a interest then this is one of the most basic recipes to make and have on hand. Freeze in freezer containers for future use. Make sure to measure the sauce out so that when you get it out of the freezer it can be put right into your spaghetti or whatever you are making without having to wait for it to thaw!</p>
<p>Add in ground turkey, beef, sausage, or chicken to make lasagna, spaghetti, or goulash. Zoodles and sauce are great for a meatless Monday dinner:)</p>
<p>This pasta sauce is so easy which is always a winner with me!</p>
