Heirloom Tomato Sauce
What is it about heirloom tomatoes that just makes you want to just take a bite out of one, just like you would an apple?
How could anyone resist the great unique characteristics of the heirloom.
I decided to make an Heirloom Tomato Sauce, chock full of vegetables.

The heirlooms, showed up in my CSA basket and you probably won’t believe me if I tell you that I have never made my own tomato sauce from scratch. when you led a busy life with children and tons of activities, a jar of store-bought tomato sauce always worked for me in the past. But I have to tell you, that what didn’t fit in my two pint jars, I used as a dipping sauce for my french bread.
Um, I really wanted more than two slices of bread, but I resisted the urge. I loved the experience of making my own sauce and getting to choose which veggies I wanted to use. So go ahead and change-up the veggies that I listed in the ingredients section to those that you love.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
