Homemade Tomato Sauce
Homemade Tomato Sauce really is easier than it sounds. Like anything else it takes a little time, but really your stove and freezer will do the hard work.
I don’t like to eat tomatoes and neither does my husband so I’m really not sure why we planted tomatoes. We must be crazy! So I ended up with all these tomatoes no one was eating – now what? Tomato sauce! – we love to eat that. I cook with Tomato Sauce all the time, yah whoo! lets save some money.
Now our recipes will have Homemade Tomato Sauce.
Sloppy Joes
Chili
– and so many others.
Now really it’s so easy.
- Rinse tomatoes
- With a sharp knife make a little X on each tomato
- Boil tomatoes for 1 minute
- Place tomatoes in ice water (I fill up my sink)
- Peal tomatoes (the skins will slide right off)
- Add a 15oz. can of Tomato Sauce to a large pot
- Cut tomatoes in half and squeeze out all excess water and seeds
- Place tomatoes in the large pot
- Add seasoning now or wait and add later to your recipe
- Simmer 2 hours (stir occasionally)
- Optional: Place in blender for desired texture.
- Freeze
See I told you it was easy. Enjoy!

Watermelon Cupcakes
I have Spring Fever!
January’s dreary cold days are hard for me. There isn’t much to look forward too and I even have a birthday coming up. The hard part about January birthdays is – What do you want for your birthday? I never know, because we just had Christmas. Could you please ask me in July, because by then I have a whole long list for you. Another icky part of January birthdays is it snows and usually on my birthday. Now this would be great if I was in to skiing – but I’m not. The older I get the less I like the snow. Unless its for Christmas, but please melt right after. I know, I know I can’t have it both ways. Okay enough whining. This is my solution to this years dreary days of January. I’m having Springy, yummy, watermelon cupcakes.
These watermelon cupcakes are not watermelon flavored they just look like watermelons. I didn’t go too crazy. I made the cupcakes with Betty Crocker’s Strawberry Cake mix and topped them with my favorite buttercream frosting.

Crockpot London Broil
Crockpot London Broil is wonderful for those busy work days. I don’t use my crock pot nearly enough. I love to cook in the Fall but I have my fair share days when I reach for frozen Chicken Nuggets and Mac n’Cheese. I really need to be more organized. New Goal – make for Crock Pot Recipes.
Hooray! for easy Crock Pot recipes.
They really are life savers. The house smells so good and dinner is ready. Stress is almost instantly deflated – It’s fabulous.
I have one problem – I forget.
Anyone else have this problem?
One thing that has helped me – here’s where the being organized part of life would really help – bring the Crock Pot out the night before. That way you see it in the morning and will remember (hopefully) to start dinner on time.
Enjoy!
