Tasty Tomato Sauce

Tonight I made my Paleo-friendly tasty tomato sauce!  It's so easy, and soooo yummy!

Here it is:

5 medium-sized tomatoes (we use the "on the vine" kind, but any will do)
1 Tbls EVOO
1 Tbls minced garlic
1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
1 pinch ground rosemary (yes...I said a pinch)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 small can tomato paste (make sure to read the ingredients--this should be tomatoes, water, and salt ONLY)

Start with your tomatoes...

 ...and cut them up into 8 pieces each.

 Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and add the tomatoes.

 Add the seasonings (you can use more or less to taste) and cook over medium heat until cooked down and tomatoes are soft.  It should look like this (usually 10-12 minutes):

 Once the tomatoes are cooked down, add can of tomato paste, stir well, and cook for another 10-15 minutes, stirring often.

Pre-Paleo, I'd have served this over pasta.  Now, I serve it over cooked spaghetti squash, chicken, or even on a good steak.  Heck, this stuff is good enough to just eat on its own!  Enjoy!
