Fresh Tomato and Basil Pasta Sauce

By srumbel

If you have fresh tomatoes and basil from your garden I hope you’ll give this pasta sauce recipe a try! It makes of use of 10 medium sized tomatoes and has a delicious, rich tomato flavor. Certainly different than most pasta sauce recipes, but unique and delicious all the same. Fresh tomatoes really pump up a recipe, am I right? It also works well if you are looking for a great vegetarian sauce.
