THICK & CHUNKY TOMATO SAUCE
Ingredients: Yields 2 ½ Quarts of Sauce
5 Quarts of Tomatoes with Juice Squeezed and Removed (Roma, Better Boy,…)
1 Pound Ground Breakfast, Hot or Sweet Sausage (Cook until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.)
1 Bell Pepper Chopped
1 Sweet onion Chopped
3-4 Cloves of Garlic Minced
1 Cup Fresh Oregano Chopped
1 1/2 Cups Mushrooms Chopped
1/2 Cup of Dried Kale
1 Small Zucchini Shredded fresh or ½ cup dehydrated
1 Small Yellow Squash Shredded fresh or ½ cup dehydrated
1-1 ½ tsp Salt (adjust to taste)
Pepper to taste
½-3/4 tsp Stevia (adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Wash tomatoes.
- Core and score an X on the bottom of each tomato.
- Easily remove the skins from tomatoes. Add 5-6 tomatoes at a time to a large pot of boiling water for 45 seconds. Then drop tomatoes into an ice bath (cold water and ice in a sink or large bowl) for 1-2 minutes. The skins should slip off easily. Discard skins.
Pro Tip: Don’t skip this step! Leaving skins on tastes like you are eating paper. I only skipped this step once, never again. - Squeeze tomatoes (I use my hands but you can use a potato masher) and discard the juice and seeds to reduce cooking time.
- Cook tomatoes down. Add tomatoes to a large pot and simmer 60 to 90 minutes. Stir occasionally. If you like a thinner sauce simmer less time.
- Now add the rest of the ingredients to the sauce and simmer for 20-30 minutes to meld flavors.
