Instructions

  • Chop the tomatoes and onion into a reasonable size.
  • Throw everything in the blender and blend for about 20 seconds on low speed.
  • Strain sauce for about 30 seconds to remove liquid. I love drinking the juice, it's very tasty!
  • Refrigerate for up to 1 week.
  • *Zucchini Noodles
  • Salt the zucchini with 1 tsp salt to remove excess liquid.
  • Use the largest spiralizing blade you have, the noodles will shrink when salted.

Notes

To utilize this much sauce it would take either (3) spiralized zucchinis or (3) -16 oz packages of noodles.
