Tomato Sauce

I'm sooo excited to be planting veggies again.  This is my second year attempting to have a garden.  Last year, I just did tomatoes.  When I was planting my lettuce and spinach today, I was thinking about all of the things I want to do with whatever we grow this year.  I remembered this recipe that I used last year.

I skipped the celery, bay leaf and wine.  It was amazing!  Jason said that it was way better than anything that he ever had out of a jar.  :-) 

I'm so excited to make it again this summer.  Now that I know I can do it, I'll be making big batches to freeze for the winter months.

Update (July): I made this again, so now I can add pictures.  This time, I added a little bit of fruitables veggie juice (like V8)
