Simple Home made Tomato sauce

One of the things I changed is not eating processed food anymore.
This is quite challenging if you always relied on processed food in pots, freezer bags or whatever pre- made stuff..

One of the things I like to make myself now is tomato sauce. Before we used many pots a week of supermarket tomato sauce which turned out had tons and tons of sugar in them!

So here the recipe of my very simple and healthy tomato sauce which you need if you eat just as much of the stuff as we do in our household!


What you need;

  • 10 to 15 ripe tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 onion
  • table spoon of honey
  • 2 table spoons of balsamic vinegar
  • a pinch of salt and some parsley
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1 big cooking pot 
  • a blender ( optional) 
  • empty pots to store the sauce in.






How to make;
  1. Cut the tomatoes in half and squeeze them a bit when you throw them in the pot.
  2. Dice the onion and garlic cloves and throw them also in the pot.
  3. Add the honey, balsamic vinegar, salt, parsley and water and put it in the stove.
  4. Put the Tomatoes on a low fire and let it boil till its reduced to a sauce, which can take anything from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  5. When its reduced enough , get the pot of the stove and let it cool down enough to throw it in the blender if you like the sauce smooth..
  6. Pour the sauce in the empty pots and store in the fridge.
Et Voila! Fresh homemade tomato sauce which didnt cost you hours of standing in the kitchen and can easily be stored in the fridge for at least a week!






Enjoy and Stay Strong!
