I followed the recipe exactly and my sauce turned out way too salty. I think I'll use less salt next time.

This sauce was a bit too acidic for my taste. I think I'll add a little more sugar next time.

This recipe is a keeper! I love that it uses fresh ingredients and it's so easy to make. I've already made it twice and I'm sure I'll be making it again soon.

This sauce is amazing! I've made it several times and it always comes out delicious. It's so versatile, I've used it on pasta, pizza, and even as a dipping sauce for breadsticks.

This is the best marinara sauce I've ever had! It's so flavorful and easy to make. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. I served it with spaghetti and meatballs and it was a hit with my family.
