If you are like me, and have so many tomatoes in your garden you don’t know what to do with, here is a great recipe for a slow roasted tomato sauce. Roasting the tomatoes brings out an intense flavor you cannot get otherwise. Roma tomatoes work best for this recipe.

  1. This was so, so good! I have a ton of tomatoes all ripening at the same time, and this was perfect! They are not Romas, but it didn’t seem to matter. Except for that point, I followed the instructions exactly, then used the sauce for a quick pizza. DELICIOUS!

  2. Thanks so much for this and the Baked Eggplant recipe. We have 100 tomato plants & was running out of ways to can them!

  3. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS RECIPE!!!!! I MADE SOMETHING LIKE THIS A FEW YRS AGO AND LOST THE RECIPE. IT IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. i MADE 2 OR 3 BATCHES OF IT AND FROZE IT IN 1 CUP QUANTITIES. GREAT FOR WHEN YOU WANT THAT CARB FIX!!!!!THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

  4. Looks good to my liking. I don’t like to watered sauce which is a lot of what I find. Have to look into making this one.

    Thanks!

  5. I love this recipe. I’m looking at ten tomatoes now and I’m just not sure what I’m going to do with them, now I have a great recipe! Thanks so much!

    I might try canning what I don’t use. Have you tried that?
