This dish is a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. I usually make a big batch of sauce and then freeze it in individual portions for later use.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few things to make it my own. I usually add some chopped basil or oregano to the sauce, and I sometimes add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little spice.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sauce turned out bland and watery. I think I needed to use more salt and pepper, or maybe add some garlic or herbs.

I found the sauce to be a bit too acidic for my taste, but that's easily remedied with a pinch of sugar or a drizzle of honey. Overall, a great recipe that I'll definitely be making again.
