Slimfatgirl Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Hi, I've been having a hard time finding a jarred spaghetti sauce that is W30 compliant. I've seen some post's about Trader Joe's sauces and I have read all of their labels and they don't seem compliant. I did a jar from Rao's Specialty Foods, Inc. (www.raos.com) at Sprouts. Has anyone tried it? The ingredients appear to be 100% compliant. I don't shop at Costco, so I can't try the Kirkland brand that was suggested some time ago.

Moderators ShannonM816 Posted November 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted November 17, 2016 I've used Rao's, I thought it was pretty good. You can always add more herbs and spices if you aren't happy with it straight out of the jar, but I was happy with the flavor. I can't remember brands right now, but I looked at a bunch of different pasta sauces at my local grocery store and found a couple that were compliant -- I think both were marinara, as opposed to things like tomato & basil (but I think I just started with marinara and may have given up before I got to other varieties).

MeganKV Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I found 1 brand at Meijers and it was surprisingly pretty cheap. I also experimented with making my own with both fresh tomatoes and seasoning and then using canned tomatoes and seasoning. Both tasted very good, just a little thinner then I am use to.

slc_melissa Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I just bought the trader Joe 's "roasted garlic spaghetti sauce" and it seems compliant. Tomato puree, tomatoes, fresh onions, roasted garlic, garlic puree, red wine vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, salt, natural roasted garlic flavor, spices. I haven't tried it yet so I can't give you a taste report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplepadres Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I found a marinara sauce at Trader Joe's that's compliant--the one in the can with the green label. I'm at the office, so can't get the ingredients for you, but it's my go-to replacement for anything needing spaghetti or pizza sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whole_kat Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Whole Foods organic marinara sauce. The non-organic one is not compliant so be careful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katesmith Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Rao's is the best! It is $7/jar but I love it so much. I use the tomato & basil one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benm1976 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Aldi's Simply Nature Organic marinara and also the tomato basil are both compliant. And $1.99/jar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShirleyP Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Classico brand makes ONE complainant sauce and it's the roasted garlic. It can usually be found at most "big box" stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janinelauren Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Some of the sauces by Victoria Fine Foods are compliant. I've only tried the Marinara so far, but minimal ingredients and great taste. You can buy two 40 oz jars at Costco for $9 which is way cheaper than in the regular supermarket.

racheleats Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 This won't add anything to the conversation, but it made me chuckle - when I first read the topic of this feed, I read it as "Jared" as in a name. And then I was confused about why everyone was recommending other brands when the OP wanted to know where to find Jared Spaghetti Sauce. Carry on!

Salocin Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I just wanted to chime in that I have reviewed the labels of the 4 new CLASSICO RISERVA Tomato Sauces and they look like winners as far as WHOLE30. They taste so fresh and distinctly better than their existing CLASSICO line. Link to Fooducate. Anyone try any of them yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaV Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 @TryingOver @benm1976 - Sadly, Aldi Simply Nature Organic marinara and tomato basil both contain organic sugar so are not compliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TryingOver Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 @AngelaV Thanks for the heads up. I hadn't made the trip yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slimfatgirl Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Thanks everyone! Unfortunately, there isn't an Aldi's near me. But I did find Mezzetta's sauce at Sprouts and it is BOGO at Sprouts this week. The marinara and the Tomato & Basil are really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlcinslc Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 It is SO EASY to make your own sauce, people: throw a can of diced tomatoes and whatever other veg you want (carrot, zucchini, spinach, mushrooms--really anything works) in the blender with herbs & salt and cook on the stove until it turns bright red. Taste check and add more salt/seasoning if needed. ADD MEAT. SO EASY. This is something I didn't learn/realize until Whole30 (along with homemade mayo and broth--why did I not know this stuff before??) so thought I'd pass it on. I actually adapted my sauce the first time I made it from this Huevos Rancheros recipe, which is also the bomb (I mean, leave out the tortillas, but...): http://mexicanfoodjournal.com/huevos-rancheros/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
