Marinara sauce without fat

Fat-free marinara sauce is a light variant of the classic marinara sauce, prepared primarily with ripe tomatoes, garlic, onion, aromatic herbs like basil and oregano, but without adding any additional oils or fats. This sauce retains the fresh and natural flavor of the tomato, making it ideal to accompany pasta, pizza, meats, or vegetables, adding a healthy touch to any dish.

The origin of marinara sauce dates back to Italian cuisine, specifically from the Naples region, where it was traditionally used as a quick and tasty condiment for seafood and pasta. In its fat-free version, it adapts to healthy and low-calorie diets without losing its flavor intensity.

Among its properties, fat-free marinara sauce is rich in lycopene, an antioxidant present in tomatoes that helps protect cells and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. It is also a natural source of vitamins A and C, and provides fiber, aiding digestion.

In different Latin American countries, it may also be found under names such as "oil-free red sauce", "homemade fat-free tomato sauce", or simply "natural tomato sauce", always referring to a preparation without the addition of fats.
