Rao's Homemade Tomato Basil

by Rao's

Rao's Tomato Basil is one of the cleanest pasta sauces available, made with simple whole ingredients and no added sugars or preservatives. It's essentially tomatoes, olive oil, herbs, and minimal processing - what pasta sauce should be.

• Italian Whole Peeled Tomatoes – beneficial · Rich in lycopene and vitamins, minimal processing preserves nutrients.
• Olive Oil – beneficial · Heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, much better than seed oils used in most sauces.
• Basil – beneficial · Natural herb with anti-inflammatory compounds and antioxidants.
• Salt – safe · Standard seasoning, though this sauce is moderately high in sodium.
• Garlic – beneficial · Natural antimicrobial and cardiovascular benefits.
• Oregano – beneficial · Rich in antioxidants and natural antimicrobial compounds.
• Black Pepper – safe · Natural spice with minimal processing.
