A fresh and light take on marinara sauce
We are so close to tomato season I can taste it. While Fall is my favorite season, Summer produces the best produce in my opinion. Strawberries, Tomatoes, Peaches…All my favorites. To prep for this amazing produce season, I wanted to make this fresh AF tomato sauce for you guys.
Nothing here is from a can or box, this is straight up fresh tomatoes. The best sauces to have.
Fresh sauces are the best for a few reasons…1. The taste is so much more pure 2. It takes 10x faster to make since we are using fresh and picked straight from the vine produce. Since fresh tomatoes only take a short time to cook down, this is a perfect week night dish when you want to whip something up very quickly.
It’s also great to bring to parties of BBQs this summer! With tomatoes near it’s season, this will go over extremely well.
I hope that you enjoy this recipe!
