If you keep a summer garden, then you no doubt notice that everything often comes in at once. We plant our tomato and basil together as “companion plants” in the garden and they seem to enhance the growth of one another. Plus – we use them together in so many recipes! When our tomato plants start producing those beautiful red tomatoes, it feels so time sensitive to use them up quickly before the squirrels get to them, and once picked they have a relatively short shelf life. Thus, making garden fresh pasta sauce is a go-to activity on summer weekends to use up a ton of tomatoes at once in a recipe that freezes well and is also great for a crowd.
