Simple, organic and best pasta sauce ever. Homegrown, homemade…

Stages of ripeness

Every year I grow tomatoes. I don’t really have a green thumb, but I manage to produce a beautiful crop of tomatoes in my backyard. A few years ago I had so many tomatoes coming off of one plant that I wasn’t sure what to do with them. Then I remembered my Uncle Anthony and his amazing marinara sauce. And out of this came my annual tradition of making pasta sauce. The secret is in the simplicity.

Here’s how:

By the way, my tomatoes and other vegetables are all organically grown. I NEVER spray them with pesticides and they do just fine growing naturally.

I take about six or seven tomatoes, slice them into quarters, and put them into a large pot coated with organic olive oil. Then I salt them with sea salt. I ad about four cloves of garlic then put the stove on “low.” After about two hours I take the contents out of the pot and put it into a blender, blend up the tomatoes and garlic then pour back into the pot and let it cook on “low” for a couple of hours.

The end result is a fabulous pasta sauce and/or soup. If you don’t grow your own tomatoes, the next best thing is to buy some organic tomatoes at the health food store and follow the recipe. Bon appetit!
