Easy Homemade Marinara Sauce ~ Ninja Foodi Cold & Hot Blender Recipe

[@FromStudioZ]

I appreciate you! Thank you for the countless hours you spend testing and developing recipes for us. I am learning so much from you!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Wow, thank you!

[@WilliamandLaurieLeifer]

We just made a marinara sauce with San Marzano tomatoes, garlic, oregano and fresh basil. We just put it all in our new NINJA hb150c. The result was just a great sauce. The Blender cooked and blended the sauce in 30 minutes....delicious.

Hey, Louise, okay so now I made spaghetti and meat sauce using this marinara. It turned out the best!! The flavors were great and mixed so well with the meat. I've told my coworkers about your channel and they've started watching you too! Thanks, again!!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the marinara sauce with meat!

[@cleokoch2764]

Sounds wonderful. Looking forward to more videos for this blender.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

More to come!

[@Cindyluzoo]

I guess I'm going to have to get one of those blenders. Been watching you make those delicious soups and sauces and it makes me really sure I need one. Oh well guess I need to take my husband shopping.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

You should! I love mine!

[@kennysanchez4276]

I have the 6.5 Foodi and the grill and you just made my mind up on getting the Foodi blender! I’ve made several of your recipes and all were home runs and can’t wait to try your marinara sauce! TY

[@TheSaltedPepper]

You will love the blender!

[@Pattys1967]

You will love it,I do

[@n5311d78an123]

I made a pizza with this sauce tonight, it turned out the best I've ever made. Absolutely the best marinara sauce!! Thank you so much!!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Thank you so much! I'm thrilled you enjoyed it!

[@n5311d78an123]

Hey Louise, I see I made that comment about 9 months ago and just wanted to drop in again to say how much my mom and I use this recipe. We have started making our own homemade pizzas and all kinds of things with this sauce. Thank you so much!!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

That is awesome! I'm so glad to hear this!

[@carolebailey1378]

Just love this sauce I have been making it for over a year. I freeze it in portions and my husband likes it poured over his pasta 😊

[@carolebailey1378]

Love this for mixing with my pasta, tasty 😊

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Thanks! Try it as pizza sauce, it's delicious!

[@Pattys1967]

Making this along with you, like ve your channel,and more importantly your recipes are yummy thank you

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Thank you so much

[@TheOldMayfieldPlace]

I can't wait to try this. Thank you!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Hope you like it!

[@Tucker2love]

I made this today and oh my, it is outstanding!!! Used over air fried chicken thighs, topped with mozzarella. Near dinner I will cook pasta on bottom, the chicken on top and viola, dinner.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

That sounds amazing!

[@rebeccame1391]

This is So Amazing!! Fabulous!!!💖

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Thank you so much!!

[@wendyweatherup4882]

it would be fantastic with zucchini sticks as well! thanks for the great recipe.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Great idea!

[@1954evelyn]

Have you posted your recipe for the mozzarella sticks I can't wait to make this sauce it is the one that made me know I NEED this blender can't wait to make it. The one in the store is soooooo expensive. I will love this one.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Not yet! I can't get them right yet, the cheese oozes out too much.

[@is94227]

How do you clean the lid rubber gasket to get rid of the food smell?

[@TheSaltedPepper]

in the dishwasher and I take it apart from the lid.

[@BrianR-ew4vo]

Looks good.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Thank you!

[@StaceyGlover77]

Hi Louise, I have a question. How much garlic powder should I use since I don't have any fresh garlic? Thanks!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

I would start with 1/4 teaspoon and see how it tastes.

[@StaceyGlover77]

@@TheSaltedPepper Thanks!

[@manong4328]

Really really complicated 😂😂. I’m doing this actually 👌. Love your videos

[@sietievdw5404]

Do you clean the ninja with the cleaning program?

[@ellenkudron6798]

Louise, can i make this in my vitamix? I do have a hot soup function, approximately 7 minutes

[@TheSaltedPepper]

I would give it a try and see what happens. I don't have a Vitamix, so I can't say for sure.

[@cocoreyes6266]

What kind of sugar was that you used to cut acidity

[@TheSaltedPepper]

I used Demerara, but you can use brown or white sugar.

[@Tucker2love]

Louise thank you for it is hot taking lid off!!! It was!!!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Yes!

[@JimmyTurner]

The fire roasted tomatoes is what I use when I'm making sauce and it does add great flavor. Make mine in a crock pot or if in a hurry I'll do it in a big sauce pan. Dad wont get the ninja blender and I'm not well off enough to spend the money on blender.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

You can make this in the Foodi, too. Just use a regular blender or immersion blender to blend.

[@kathydoubleu6826]

Grape jelly works too for sweetening

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Yes! I have never tried it in marinara sauce, but I can see. how it would work.

[@kathydoubleu6826]

@@TheSaltedPepper I do it and people say what!? until I remind them that wine is made from grapes and you cook with wine! It cuts the acidity. I've also added cinnamon to meatballs , just a pinch to give a nice flavor.

[@Pattys1967]

What if I don't have that kind of sugar,can I use regular

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Yes, you can, just use less.

[@soniasmith7453]

Can you make this sauce in a food processor?

[@TheSaltedPepper]

You could certainly make it in a food processor and then simmer it on the stove.

[@Pattys1967]

I followed this exactly and omg it was not good at all and I don’t know why it tasted really salty and just didn’t taste like I thought it would and I did do everything same as you the first time I made it I added cooked peppers and an onion and it was delicious

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Maybe you used a different salt? It shouldn't come out tasting salty. Or, maybe the canned tomatoes you used had more salt? Whatever the reason, I'm just glad that you added what you love and made it delicious!

[@jenniferstephens21]

Looks great! Now to figure a way to cook in the Foodi or Grill. I can’t start wanting another Ninja just yet 🤣

[@TheSaltedPepper]

I have instructions for the Foodi in the written recipe post.

[@jenniferstephens21]

The Salted Pepper great! I will go to it. ❤️

[@Mr3rdTwin]

I’m gonna make this with some pasta

[@TheSaltedPepper]

You'll love it!

[@n5311d78an123]

Mmmm that looks amazing and I can't wait to watch the cheese stick video when you have it ready. Do you think this sauce would be good in a homemade lasagna or pizza recipe, too?

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Oh yes! It would be great for either!

[@rickraco105]

I make Mozilla sticks with raspberry sauce

[@TheSaltedPepper]

That sounds so interesting!

[@JimmyTurner]

I told my dad we should get the cold and hot blender. He acted like I was a moron. "Why do we need to blend hot stuff? Jimmy you cant cook in a blender" lol i didn't try to say more lol.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

That's funny!

[@JamesPage-qn9kt]

Have you ever canned this marinara sauce?

[@Pattys1967]

This is weird and I don’t understand what went wrong with this Maranara sauce I don’t understand it 😢I’m sad

[@TheSaltedPepper]

What went wrong? I make it all the time and it’s always perfect.
