Ingredients
1 cup cherry tomatoes or regular tomatoes, chopped (150 g / 5.3 oz)
½ - 1 cup fresh basil
2 cloves garlic
1 shallot or small white onion (30 g / 1.1 oz)
4 tbsp / ¼ cup tomato puree, unsweetened (60 g / 2.1 oz)
4 tbsp / ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil (60 ml / 2 fl oz)
¼ tsp salt or more to taste (I like pink Himalayan)
freshly ground black pepper
Note: When looking for ingredients, try to get them in their most natural form (organic, without unnecessary additives).
Instructions
1. Wash and drain the tomatoes and fresh basil. Peel the onion and garlic.
2. Place most of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. You may need to dice the onion and mash the garlic before to make sure there are no large pieces left.
3. If you prefer a chunky texture, leave some tomatoes and basil aside, dice and add to the smooth sauce. When done, place in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to a week. To keep it fresh for longer, pour a thin layer of extra virgin olive oil on top and store for up to 2 weeks.
4. Marinara sauce is perfect as topping on low-carb pizza!
