Basil Tomato Sauce

Directions

Add the tomatoes in the bowl of a food processor or a blender, then add the basil, oregano, garlic, olives and pepper.

Pulse the sauce until thoroughly combined and smooth.

Season (canned tomatoes will vary widely in sodium content, resulting in some sauces that require less salt than others).

Remove the sauce to a bowl, lightly cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed.

Makes about 3 cups tomato sauce and can be covered and refrigerated for up to one week.
