Are your tomatoes starting to look sad? Turn them into tomato sauce! This recipe is perfect for accompanying your pasta, rice, quinoa, and more. We also love to make a larger batch and let it simmer in a pan while cracking in some eggs (like a shakshuka!). Another recipe idea: serve it on toasted bread for appetizers. Enjoy!

Peel the tomatoes, remove the seeds, and cut them into cubes. Also, cut the bell pepper. Chop the shallot and the clove of garlic.
Sauté the bell pepper, shallot, and garlic in olive oil. When the shallot becomes translucent, add the tomatoes. Add a little water, cover, and let it simmer until the mixture has the consistency of a sauce.
It's ready! Enjoy your meal!
