Are you a fan of gardening or do you purchase your produce at the market? We all know that homegrown is best…but were gotta do what we gotta do. I wish I was a gardener extrordinaire, but sadly I’m a member of the black thumb club. I try to grow things, but alas they don’t thrive. I was lucky to score some home grown tomatoes from my boyfriend’s mom in Oklahoma. I wanted to make something special with them and I knew that this Spaghetti with Fresh Tomato Sauce would really help to show off their summer flavor. This recipe goes from prep to table in about 20 minutes and it’s super healthy too! Great for your meatless, vegetarian meal planning.

So what makes this “fresh” tomato sauce? We use no canned ingredients, just fresh tomatoes. They are only heated up about 2 minutes just before you are ready to serve the pasta. They aren’t cooked for a long time, which makes this sauce lighter tasting and summery.
