What You Will Need: Large tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, garlic, fresh basil, dried oregano & dried parsley. You will also need a can of tomato paste & a spoon full of sugar.
Preheat oven to 400.
Start by removing the stem & cut the tomatoes into chunks.
Add in diced onions, peppers & whole cloves of garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, salt & pepper.
Roast in the oven for an hour & a half.
Place the roasted mixture into a large pot & add in your tomato paste.
Using an immersion blender, puree the mixture till smooth. If it is to thick add some water or chicken stock till you reach the right consistency.
Turn your heat to low & add in your herbs. Chopped basil, oregano & parsley.
Because the tomatoes are so acidic, add in a spoonful or more of sugar to help balance the sauce.
Allow to simmer for at least 30 minutes. Taste & adjust seasonings according to your personal preference.
Cool & keep refrigerated.
Use it for all your italian dishes including this healthy quinoa stuffed cabbage.
Enjoy & Always Cook with Love!
