Ingredients

  • 1 pound grape tomatoes washed
  • 6 ounces bell peppers diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon red chili flakes optional
  • ¾ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Wash the tomatoes and set aside. If they are large, you can cut them in half.
  • Wash and dice the bell peppers and set aside.
  • Mince the garlic, set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium high heat in a heavy bottomed pan.
  • Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add the peppers and seasonings. Mix and cook for about 3 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes, and cook until the skins have blistered, about 5-6 mnutes. Stir often.
  • Remove from heat. I like to use a potato masher just to break the tomatoes up a bit, but this is totally optional.
  • Pasta sauce is ready to eat. Top cooked pasta with sauce, and garnish with fresh herbs and parmaesn cheese.
