I've been making this sauce for years because it's so easy and adds an amazing flavor to any dishes, not just pasta! I like to serve mine with meatballs and vegetable pasta alternatives like zucchini noodles.
Just like this Baked Feta Pasta Sauce, it's so versatile, plus it's also dairy-free! If you're planning to use it as pasta sauce, simply heat up and serve with your favorite low-carb pasta options such as zucchini noodles, palmini noodles, or shirataki noodles.
This sauce can also be used as a base for casseroles, meatballs and you can even use it to make bolognese-style dishes or keto lasagna. It works well on pizza because you can use it just like you would Marinara Sauce, or simply bake with some chicken.
Finally, this sugar-free tomato sauce is great for meal prep and batch cooking. It's easy to portion it up and freeze it so you've got a tasty sauce ready for future meals.

Macronutrient ratio: Calories from carbs (16%), protein (5%), fat (79%)
Ingredients (makes about 4 cups, 960 ml)
- 450 g canned peeled tomatoes (1 lb)
- 4 large celery stalks, sliced (300 g/ 10.6 oz)
- 1 large brown onion, diced (150 g/ 5.3 oz)
- 4 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (60 ml/ 2 fl oz)
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Optional: 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Dice the onion. Slice the celery stalks and garlic. Pour the olive oil in a saucepan and add onion. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes, until lightly browned and fragrant. You can fry it longer for more caramelized flavor. Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Finally add celery, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Optionally add 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce. Cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low-medium. Simmer until the celery is tender, for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and give it a good stir. Set aside to cool down a little before using an immersion blender and processing until smooth.
- Let it cool down completely before pouring in saleable jars. Store in the fridge in sealed jars for up to a week. For longer storage, transfer to an ice tray or small freezer-friendly containers and freeze for up to 6 months. When ready to use, just pop out a few cubes.
- Serve with zucchini noodles, palmini noodles or shirataki noodles and protein options of choice (chicken or any meatballs work best).

These easy keto popsicles are perfect for summer and completely guilt-free! Refreshing and light, virtually zero-carb and zero calorie so you can easily have a few on a hot day!
We're using earl grey tea bags (or you can use an equivalent amount of loose tea), lemon and keto approved sweetener with a few leaves of fresh mint. Instead of earl grey you can use any black tea including decaf. Green tea or herbal tea can be used as well. Enjoy!
Recipe Tips
- Tea: You can use tea bags or loose tea. Black tea, earl grey, herbal tea or even fruit tea are all good option. If using fruit tea, make sure it's unsweetened.
- Sweeteners: You can either use Allulose or any powdered low-carb sweetener like Erythritol or Swerve. If you prefer more sweetness, add a tablespoon or two, or use less if you don't like your popsicles too sweet.
- Citrus: We are using lemon juice but you can use other options such as limes or bergamots.
- Herbs: Mint works best with ice teas although you can try other options such as lemon verbena or thyme.

Macronutrient ratio: Calories from carbs (92%), protein (3%), fat (5%)
Ingredients (makes 8 popsicles)
- 2 earl grey tea bags or black tea of choice
- 2 cups boiling water (480 ml/ 16 fl oz)
- 4 tbsp granulated Allulose or Erythritol (40 g/ 1.4 oz)
- 4 tbsp fresh lemon juice (60 ml/ 2 fl oz)
- 1/2 whole organic lemon, sliced and few mint leaves
Instructions
- Brew the tea by pouring 2 cups (480 ml) of hot water over 2 tea bags or an equivalent amount of loose tea. You can use earl grey tea or your favorite black tea. Steep for 3 minutes, and then remove the bags or pour through a sieve if using loose tea. Stir in the sweetener (Allulose or Erythritol) and mix until dissolved. Set aside to cool down to room temperature.
- Add fresh lemon juice.
- You can add a few lemon slices or mint leaves. Thinly slice the lemon and cut each slice in half. Divide the lemon slices and a few fresh mint leaves between 8 popsicle molds (85 ml/ 3 fl oz each). Pour the cooled tea over them. Insert the popsicle sticks. Freeze for about 2 hours or until set.
- Once set, remove from the molds and place in freezer bags. It helps to run some warm water on the outside of the molds to release the popsicles.
- Store in a freezer for up to 6 months.
