A quick and easy homemade classic that can be made entirely with ingredients from your pantry. Unlike its canned counterpart, it has way less sodium and no added sugars.
I’ve finally jumped on the “What can I make entirely from my pantry during COVID-19 isolation?” bandwagon. I’ll still continue posting normal recipes, but you’ve probably noticed the recipes I’ve posted lately seem to have more common ingredients.
If you don’t have something for this recipe, you can easily substitute. This recipe can be made with pretty much any kind of canned tomatoes. I didn’t want to use my last can of petite diced, so I chose one of the cans of peeled tomatoes I had in my pantry. You can also switch out the herbs and spices if you don’t have something in the recipe. Lastly, if you don’t have vegetable stock, use chicken stock or broth, make some using bullion, or use one of the broth or stock recipes from The Ultimate List of Homemade Pantry and Fridge Staples.
