What to do with...

... All the tomatoes from your garden? Make homemade pasta sauce.
It's easy! Cut up the tomatoes (at least 5-6) and process them in a food processor. Sauté lots of garlic with lots of olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the tomatoes and 2 cans of tomato paste. Stir well. Add 1 cup stock (I use fake chicken) and balsamic vinegar ( a few tablespoons). Season with salt, oregano. Let it simmer on the stove top for a while - keep tasting until you like it. Season as needed. At the end you can add basil (I didn't have any and it was still delicious- how delicious? My mom complimented me!)
Enjoy!
