     You will never buy jarred Pasta Sauce again after experiencing homemade.  It’s not even that much trouble, simple simple simple.  The taste is divine and worth the extra step.  Each cup is only 109 calories, 19g carbs, 4.4g fiber, 14.6g net carbs, 3.3g protein and 3.3g fat, for a total of 5.5 cups.  If you want to add meat, the calories jump to 120, 11.2g carbs, 2.7g fiber, 8.5g net carbs, 11.7g protein and 3.6g fat per cup, for a total of 10 cups for the entire recipe.  If you try this, or should I say when you try this, please let me know what you think!😊
