My absolute FAV tomato sauce recipe “Roasted Tomato and Red Pepper Sauce” Enjoy!

Roasted Tomato and Red Pepper Sauce

A few of my notes:
1. I double or triple the recipe depending on what I have brought in from the garden
2. I freeze the sauce (it’s not said to be canning safe). It takes multiple rounds in the oven but it’s worth it!
3. I always use Romas and red peppers but the person who gave me the recipe uses whatever she has on hand (ex. slicing tomatoes, any color peppers, etc.) Since I use a paste tomato and remove the core, I can basically remove the seeds before it goes into the oven which eliminates the need to run it through a mill later.
4. I have made it without removing the skins from tomatoes and peppers but the texture is so much better when I remove the skins from both after they come out of the oven and before I put them in the food processor.
5. This makes a really thick sauce, and it’s wonderful on a good piece of bread but I also use it as a tomato sauce and just thin it a bit (water or stock) when I thaw/heat it later. You could also get a thinner sauce if you used a combo of slicing tomatoes and Romas or decibels if you only used slicing tomatoes.
