To use, simply heat the marinara sauce gently in a saucepan over medium heat until it reaches your desired temperature. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. It can be poured directly over cooked pasta, used as a base for homemade pizza, or served as a warm dip for breadsticks and appetizers. For a richer flavor, you can simmer it with additional ingredients like sautéed onions, garlic, or a pinch of red pepper flakes. It also works well as a sauce for chicken parmesan or lasagna.
