FRESH Tomato-Basil-Garlic Sauce RECIPE



Theres nothing like a homemade Tomato Sauce, however most people use a storebought kind in a jar.  Usually because a homemade sauce has to simmer on the stove for a good bit and most people don't have the time. Well if that is the case for you, this will be the perfect recipe. It is simple, tasty and doesn't require any cooking. My raw version taste fresh like a salsa and can be used for exactly that or as a sauce over raw zucchini noodles or pasta noodles.  I keep all my ingredients at room temperature so the sauce isn't cold.  Feel free to puree the sauce and use in lasangas or over your noodles.  Adjust the spice to your liking with either dried or fresh chili.  Enjoy!
