When I asked my YouTube viewers how they enjoyed their spiralized zucchini, the one answer that intrigued me the most was Raw Marinara Sauce. After testing and tweaking I came up with this surprisingly flavorful sauce. I tried to eat it cold like the raw foodies do, I really did, but it wasn’t much fun… So, I heated it just enough to knock the chill off and loved it.
