Notes
Serve immediately over pasta or allow to cool to room temperature then freeze into dinner sized portions.
Freezer instructions: Wait until the sauce cools down, and freeze it in an airtight container. If you're planning on freezing this sauce, double the recipe to get more mileage out of your time.
You can switch out the fire-roasted tomatoes for diced tomatoes if you’d like. The fire-roasted tomatoes add a great flavor to the dish, but if you get a good deal on regular canned tomatoes or just prefer them, it will still be delish.
Making this sauce is a staple in my house because I can save it for later. If it’s stored in an airtight bag or jar, it will last 4-5 days in the refrigerator.
I recommend making a large batch or two and then put it in individual freezer bags or containers. This sauce will easily last a few months in the freezer. Then grab whatever you need to use. You can use it in the Pasta Freezer Meals perfectly! :)
It’s also perfect for an easy lunch idea or a quick dinner that’s virtually effortless. You’ll be glad you made it ahead of time.
