Great basic sauce
Tried this for dinner tonight. The recipe makes a great foundation for whatever your tastes may be. I like a basic sauce that I can tweak to both my kids and husbands tastes.

So great!
Used 5 Roma tomatoes and 1 shallot due to using what I had in the house. Turned out excellent. I honestly couldn't believe how easy it was

Great 10min Sauce!
Love this! Added an extra tablespoon of tomato paste and 1T olive oil. Blended for 7mins on level 10. No simmering. Just scooped it right on top of the pasta. Awesome!

Fantastic Sauce!
This was a super easy sauce and tastes so fresh! I didn't have Roma tomatoes on hand, so used regular tomatoes straight from the garden. I had to simmer it a bit longer to cook off the extra water from the regular tomatoes. Poured it over whole wheat angel hair spaghetti and had a delicious dinner! Love my Vitamix!

Good easy sauce
Couldn't believe how easy this is. Tweaked it by adding a little bit of crushed red pepper.
Very versatile .

So good!
I just made this tomato basil sauce and it's delicious! I used fresh basil from my garden! I think I will put it on spaghetti squash tomorrow after work! I'll never have to buy jarred sauce again!

This was the first recipe I made after my initial purchase approximately one year ago.

Wow so good! (I used baby carrots and half onion)
I used baby carrots and half onion because that was what I had in my fridge at the time.
