Tomato Sauce

I am so excited about this post. How often does a girl get to make her own tomato sauce (at least living in California) from tomatoes from a garden?? Nick's mom gave us garden tomatoes from her Father's garden, and look how beautiful they are!

 

Mom gave me the hint that boiling tomatoes makes it easy to skin them. And look how well it works!

 

So the next step was to cut out the inedible centers, and then smash them! I bought that potato masher two days before I got the idea to make tomato sauce. That right there is providence, plain and simple.

And then I used this recipe to add the spices and for cook time, added some ground turkey...

And had delicious, home made tomato sauce :) Perfect!
