I'm not a big fan of tomato sauce, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did! This sauce is really good. It's not too sweet or too sour. It's just right.

This sauce is way too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really bland. I think I might have added too much water.

This sauce is a little bit spicy for my taste, but I still really enjoyed it. I think it would be great on a pizza or pasta with a lot of cheese.

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. I always have a few tomatoes that are about to go bad, and this sauce is the perfect way to use them up.
