Fresh Tomato Sauce

I wanted to make Ginger's Pasta for dinner tonight because our neighbor brought us a bunch of fresh tomatoes. But, I didn't have the right kind of artichokes. I googled "fresh tomatoes" and ravioli and came up with this recipe. I used frozen ravioli, and 6 tomatoes, but otherwise followed the recipe for the tomato sauce. The kids made a huge mess, but they liked the sauce. I really liked it, too, although it wasn't what I was expecting.

Ingredients
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 12 ripe Roma tomatoes, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup chopped basil

  • Preparation
    Sauté the garlic in the olive oil until soft. Add the tomatoes, salt, and pepper and cook until the tomatoes begin to soften. Add all but a couple of tablespoons of the basil. Put the mixture in a blender and blend until smooth.
