Garden Tomato Sauce
Posted on June 28, 2012
Nothing is better
in the summer than tomatoes off the vine! And since tomato season is approaching, I thought I would share my tomato sauce recipe.
It’s easy and healthy! No olive oil needed!
1 lb of tomatoes off the vine, peeled and seeded or
28 ounce can of tomatoes
(See below link on how to core, peel, and seed a tomato.

14 ounces of water
3 cloves of garlic (peeled)
1 yellow onion (peeled and sliced into chunks)
6 basil leaves
dash of salt
dash of pepper
dash of hot pepper flakes
Put all ingredients into a blender.
Blend until smooth
Cook in a large skillet on simmer for about an hour – or until your desired thickness
Serve with your favorite pasta!
