This is a simple recipe where you can use any tomatoes you may have.
MY method is very simple. I bring about 2 cups water to a boil. Drop tomatoes in boiling water and once you see the skin start to burst pour water out and put cold water in. I then peel tomatoes, cut in pieces and crush with a potato masher.
In a separate pan I add at least 1/2 cup olive oil and at least 2 minced garlic cloves. Allow to simmer slowly until you can smell the garlic aroma. Do not burn garlic.
Once the garlic has simmered add crushed tomatoes and simmer slowly for about a half hour. After the half hour add two pieces fresh basil. Just simmer a little while longer. No need to over cook basil. Cooking too long basil will overpower sauce.
Cook pasta according to directions. (Make sure to salt water). Drain. Add yummy fresh tomato sauce, pecorino cheese and once again an easy summer meal. Serve with a salad to complete meal.
This recipe can be adjusted to how many servings you want so adjust amounts of ingredients.
NOTE: I have found over the years you don't have to be exact with this recipe. Just have fun making it to your taste. I also have used dried basil but in small amounts.
1-Simple chocolate box cake made according to directions.
2- Large chocolate pudding made thinner than recipe called for or add more milk when it has solidified thin out the pudding
3- Large container Cool Whip
When cake comes out of oven poke DEEP holes all over cake. (I use a large end of a round cooking spoon.
Cool. Then pour pudding over cake. Refrigerate until set. ADD Cool Whip to top gently and spread. Refrigerate at least an hour before serving.
Enjoy!
