If it is a basic tomato sauce, lacking meat, olives or strong flavorings such as basil, you can use it as you would any basic tomato sauce and it becomes just another ingredient. You could make another, more complex sauce with it, such as a Puttanesca sauce (add garlic, olives, capers, anchovies, crushed red pepper, etc.) Or, you could use it in something altogether different, where the sauce isn't the main ingredient. You could saute some olives in oil and finish them with the sauce. Or, you could make meatballs and dress them with the sauce. The possibilies are nearly endless; any recipe that called for crushed tomatoes might work with a tomato sauce.
