Slow Cooker Red & Yellow Tomato Sauce
Thick, rich, sweet and delicious. You will be so proud of yourself all winter long as you use this in spaghetti sauce, a base for chili and soups, or a pizza sauce. Who knew it could be so easy?
Ingredients
- Tomatoes
- Salt
- Water
Instructions
- Spray the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray.
- Remove stem and rump end from tomatoes. Slice in half or quarter, and place into slow cooker, filling the cooker nearly to the top.
- Add salt to taste. You might want to start with about 2 teaspoons.
- Allow to come to a boil (this might take a couple of hours.
- Remove lid or set lid on sideways to allow steam to escape. Let the mixture continue to cook until reduced and thickened to your taste (I try to aim for reducing it by half).
- Allow to cool slightly or all the way - your call. Blend with a blender until skins have been fully blended and are not visible.
- Freeze in glass or plastic freezer bags. If freezing in glass, allow a generous 1/2 - 3/4 inch headspace to allow for expansion during freezing.
