Tomatoe sauce from scratch
 

My lovely neighbor brought me a huge bag of tomatoes at all stages of ripeness, even green, from his garden. I chopped them all up and put lots of onions and green peppers and olive oil and sauteed and then let it cook until they were soft. I put all that in the blender to puree and poured it in a large pot. I then sauteed some ground rump with lots of onions peppers and garlic and poured that into the sauce, added my herbs and let that cook for three hours. It is still cooking and I tasted it already and it is wonderful. I have never made sauce like this before from fresh tomatoes.

Yesterday I made blueberry waffles from scratch.....

I'll be over soon. My kind of cooking. I just made salsa verde from scratch and garden vegetable soup with beef bone and small meat balls.

Oh yum! What time is dinner? I'd even bring fresh pasta and Italian bread. With the waffles a little whipped cream and more fresh berries and breakfast is served! But I also love blueberry pancakes or waffles with syrup. Oh you got me thinking food again and I just had lunch.....

MMMM your tomato sauce sounds devine.....love blueberry waffles too

Next time save the green tomatoes for fried green tomatoes!

Oh my gosh!! You could have had fried green tomatoes!! They are so tasty!! But your alternative sounds delish, too!

I did think about the fried green tomatoes (saw the movie and loved it lol) but didn't want to bother just then. The sauce came out awesome......

The first time I had salsa verde was in Mexico in a boarding house where I live while I studied (when I was young of course) she cooked chicken and pork in it and served it with tortillas. I had never tasted anything so delicious.

How do you fry green tomatoes? I have heard about them but never tasted them.

I was given a lot of green tomatoes and made fried green tomatoes yesterday. They were so good. I do not fry anything anymore but could not resist this.
