Sometimes, no matter how well you plan and follow your recipes, there are extra ingredients that are left over, especially if the store doesn’t sell packages with the precise quantity you want. If one of those ingredients happens to be marinara, then you’re in luck. Here are some scrumptious recipes to make with your leftover marinara sauce.

Pan Pepperoni Pizza

Get out your finest cast-iron skillet and fill it with your marinara sauce to create a delicious pepperoni pizza. If you don’t feel like cooking all of the ingredients from scratch, buy a pizza base from the grocery store and add the marinara sauce along with your favorite shredded cheese and pepperoni slices.

Eggplant Parmesan Panini Sandwich

If you’re looking for a scrumptious lunch that will be sure to make your day at work, then a warm, cheesy sandwich will certainly satisfy your tastebuds. Simply spread the marinara sauce on your bread and top up with mozzarella cheese, eggplant, and tomatoes. Toast the sandwich for added deliciousness.

Cheesy Baked Pasta

Despite the many recipes that can use marinara, this sauce is often best used for what it was made for. Mix your marinara in with some pasta, parmesan, sausage, and broccoli for a tasty cheesy baked pasta.
