{No-Cook Tomato Sauce}

I have been a little behind on this blog, we are in the process of moving out of state. But I will update every chance I get :) I love all the freshness that summer brings. I just had to try this recipe and it was really good. It's very simple and you can kinda do what you want with it. I felt more on the healthy side after eating this :) You can toss this with pasta or spoon over chicken, or even just eat it out of the bowl.

















6 large fresh tomatoes
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 tsp kosher salt (I would keep adding and tasting till you get it the taste you want)
ground black pepper

Chop the tomatoes and place in a bowl. Add the garlic, olive oil, basil and salt and pepper. Toss gently. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours. The longer they sit the juicier they get.
