Homemade tomato sauce

This is a great and easy recipe from recipetips.com .

 1 green pepper
1/2 onion-quartered

4 tomatoes skinned

2 garlic cloves

1 teaspoon salt

In a blender, add the green peppers strips and onion. Process until liquefied. 

( I put them all together and added salsa, cumin, chili powder and Cayenne pepper to make this a enchilada sauce)

Add the tomatoes, garlic and salt. Puree until liquefied

In a large saucepan, add vegetable mixture. Bring to a boil for a few minutes, and then allow it to simmer. As it the tomato sauce simmers, the excess water will rise to the top. Go ahead and take a spoon and skim off the excess water. ( I found this unnecessary since water usually boils out)

Simmer until it reaches your desired consistency. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Once sauce has cooled, you can either use it in a recipe, or it can be placed into a freezer container and be stored in the freezer for up to a year.
