Easy chunky tomato sauce.

Who doesn't want ALLLLL the comfort food on a Sunday?!?! Our last garden tomato is long gone (insert crying emoji)!! We used this as a quick and easy recipe when we were in a hurry for some sauce. This was one of about three different kinds we made this Summer. Our favorite was a roasted tomato sauce recipe we found on pinterest via my sister-in-laws pinning, but this one we created on out own, when we didn't want to make a trip to the store.

1. Ingredients:
2. 2 pounds fresh tomatoes, peeled and cored if you prefer. I wanted texture so as you can see I only sliced them up.
3. 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
4. 1 medium yellow onion, peeled and halved
5. Salt, to taste
6. Basil (optional)

1. Directions: Place the tomatoes, butter, and halved onion in a medium saucepan.
2. Bring the sauce to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer, and cook for 45 minutes, or until the butter droplets separate from the tomato juices. Remove the onions.
3. Using an immersion blender, pulse a few times to break up large chunks of tomato. Season to taste if necessary.
