Homemade Tomato Sauce

Easy and quick to make, tomato sauce!

Yield: about 1 1/2- 2 cups of sauce

Ingredients:
5 large Roma tomatoes (you could use other kinds if you'd like)
1 cup of water
1/2 cup of fresh chopped basil
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp dried parsley
1 Tbs olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Assembly:
1.) In a sauce pan, or Dutch oven like I used, heat oil until hot, add diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and let them simmer for about 10 minutes.
2.) Add chopped basil, balsamic vinegar, parsley, salt and pepper. Stir, then add water and continue to cook for 5 minutes.
4.) Turn off heat, and taste. Add more salt and pepper if needed.
5.) Take the sauce and carefully pour it into a blender, and pulse until smooth. ( I leave mine a little chunkier!)
 
Great on pizza, pasta, Mexican dishes...etc!
