Need Spaghetti Sauce Recommendations

I've been making my own, but it's time consuming and I really don't want to make it with the hot days we have been having, so I need recommendations on jarred/canned pasta sauces. Which ones are for sure gluten free? I went to the store and got overwhelmed with the number of jars that had "natural flavors" or other vague ingredients.

(PS: I need them to be soy free and it seems many use soybean oil instead of olive oil. So bonus points if you know if a brand is soy free as well. However, if you just know it's gluten free I'll happily check the ingredients for soy myself. They have to list soy. I wish they had to list all forms of gluten.)

We use Newmans Own because you can understand every ingredient. Unfortunately, they clearly list soybean oil. One less for you to check.

I use Classico red sauce (I believe all of their sauces are gluten-free, but I would double check that statement) or Newman's Own.

We use Cupini's. It is the only one we have not gotten any reactions from...including no acid/indigestion. There are some brands we have tried that don't have soybean oil that are still hit or miss...I think because they also produce other "flavors" that do contain stuff (like dairy).

When you find a canned/jarred sauce that fits your requirements use the following method....time saver and does not heat the house.....

1 jar favorite sauce, 1 onion (chopped), 1 green/bell pepper (chopped), 1 can tomato sauce, 1 can diced tomatoes, 1 teaspoon of sugar and salt and pepper to your liking.

Place all in a slow cooker in the morning and put on low heat setting. Allow to simmer all day long, when you are ready (come in form work) boil noodles and brown 1 pound ground beef with seasoning or any other meat you use. Add to tomato sauce and Viola' You've got Spaghetti......

We use Bertolli. There are several varieties. Our favorite is the olive oil and garlic. It's ingredients are: tomato puree (water, tomato paste), diced tomatoes, garlic, bertoli extra virgin olive oil, sugar, onions, salt, spices. It is an Unilever brand. Here is a link:

Here is how I make my sauce. I gave up on the all ready prepared stuff.

1 can diced tomatoes (plain, with spices, onions, whatever you like)

3 to 6 tablespoons of a good olive oil

spices to taste

Heat to boiling in a skillet. Serve over spaghetti noodles.

Now if I'm not in a hurry, I might fry some onions, red and yellow peppers in the oil before adding the tomatoes.

I've used fresh onions and dried ones with this recipe.

If you can have dairy I do this:

I mix Parmesan cheese with butter. Almost equal parts but heavy with the Parmesan. I somethings add garlic and spices to this step.

I add the hot noodles to this and stir together.

Top with tomatoes.

If I want Alfredo Sauce:

Mix together:

16 oz sour cream

Juice of half a lemon

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
