I find that some jarred sauces have more added sugar than I like. Plain
tomato sauce with a sprinkle of mixed Italian herbs works for me. There
are also other canned tomato products with less salt.

I had some Newman's Own with tomato and basil last month. It was good,
but my sister says she can't find it any more. It isn't on the web page:
