Back-to-Basics Pasta Sauces

SAUZ Basic Basil Marinara is Suited for Pasta or Pizza

The SAUZ Basic Basil Marinara has been added to the brand's product portfolio as a pasta sauce that maintains a decidedly simple recipe and flavor to deliver exceptional results.

The product comes as the brand's take on the classic marinara sauce that's found in many pantries, but that often leaves the palate wanting more. The Basic Basil Marinara sets itself apart with simple ingredients like crushed tomatoes and basil, but is formulated as the gateway to the brand's more adventurous flavor varieties. The sauce is also perfect for everyday use to work well with pasta, but also as a pizza sauce.

The SAUZ Basic Basil Marinara takes things in a back-to-basics direction that's available now for consumers to shop in-store and online.
