That’s it for our keto spaghetti sauce. It’s a simple sauce that you can prepare in just 30 minutes. We’ve put together this quick FAQ to help answer the most commonly asked questions we receive about sugar-free pasta sauce.
Keto spaghetti sauce is a low-carb, no-sugar spaghetti sauce made with Italian herbs and seasoning. This low carb sauce is keto-friendly and is a healthy substitute for standard store-bought pasta sauces.
Keto diets are low carb (but high in fat), with the primary goal of inducing your body to burn through its fat reserves rather than taking on carbohydrates and added sugars as a source of energy.
But are tomatoes keto-friendly? Yes, tomatoes are keto-friendly, as they contain only a few grams of carbohydrates and are drastically lower in sugars than most other fruits.
Store-bought spaghetti sauce is usually relatively high in added sugar. This means that it’s not often going to be keto-friendly, and you’ll find there are a ton of carbs in spaghetti sauce you buy at the store!
Of course, if you’re on a keto diet, you most likely won’t be eating traditional pasta noodles with your no-sugar-added spaghetti sauce either. Don’t worry, because there are plenty of delicious low carb alternatives, many of which you can make at home with a spiralizer or a pasta maker. Check out our homemade pasta recipe and try it with almond or coconut flour for a keto alternative, or go straight to keto pasta recipe.
Our spaghetti sauce recipe is definitely keto-friendly, as there is no added sugar, and tomatoes are naturally low in carbs.
However, if you’re buying spaghetti sauce from the store, there’s likely a lot of added sugar in there, making it not so keto-friendly.
It’s not impossible to find low carb spaghetti sauce in the store, but it’s much easier to prepare it at home!
Keto spaghetti sauce goes exceptionally well with low carb pasta substitutes for a delicious keto-friendly spaghetti dinner.
Regular pasta isn’t keto, as, of course, pasta is loaded with carbs. There are, however, lots of tasty low carb alternatives.
The easiest low carb pasta-substitutes that you can prepare at home are spiralized vegetables. You can use a sharp knife to spiralize or a spiralizing machine. ‘Zoodles,’ or zucchini noodles, are one of our favorites, but you can try carrots, squash, and many other low carb vegetables too.
Here are a few different serving suggestions:
Any leftover keto spaghetti sauce will keep for a few days in the refrigerator; just make sure you transfer it to a resealable container. It’s easy to reheat the sauce later; all you need to do is pour the sauce back into a saucepan and slowly heat it on the stovetop. Add a few fresh herbs if you want to top up the flavors again.
Freeze your sauce for later too. Transfer your keto tomato sauce leftovers to a resealable bag or plastic container, then place them into the freezer. Defrost the sauce naturally on the side or put it in the microwave on low power to defrost. Simmer on the stovetop to reheat through to the center.
