CONS

Tomato paste in the recipe contains added preservatives, so it may not be suitable for those who are sensitive to additives.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Tomato-based sauces are rich in antioxidants that help reduce inflammation in the body. They contain high levels of lycopene, which has been linked to reducing the risk of cancer and heart disease. The garlic in the recipe is also known for its immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties.
