By krdsk27

Ingredients

• 2 lbs large tomatoes
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven 400°f.

Slice tomatoes in half, set aside.

Pour the olive oil onto a large baking sheet and spread it around the sheet.

Sprinkle evenly the garlic, herbs, sugar, salt and pepper over the oil.

Place the tomatoes cut side down onto the baking sheet.

Roast for about 30-40 minutes, or until the skins start to lift from the tomatoes.

Allow to cool.

Remove the skins and put the sauce into a large bowl and break up the flesh with a fork.

You may also blend it to create a smoother sauce.

Reheat sauce if using immediately.

Freezes well, but allow to cool before freezing.
