About Sauce, pasta, spaghetti/marinara, ready-to-serve
Marinara — jarred pasta sauce — is the everyday tomato sauce that turns a pot of pasta into dinner: tomatoes simmered with onion, garlic, herbs and a little oil. Convenient and familiar, it's the ready-made backbone of countless quick meals.
Built on tomatoes, it's a reasonably nutritious sauce: relatively low in calories, with lycopene, vitamin C and vitamin A from the tomatoes and some heart-healthy fat from the olive oil. The main things to watch in jarred versions are added sugar and sodium, which vary a lot between brands.
A good tomato sauce adds flavor and nutrients to pasta for modest calories; scanning the label for added sugar and salt is the easiest way to pick a better jar.
