That looks delicious! Now I wish I hadn't already set out chicken AND told Bryan what I was planning on making.
The frezzer bag part is the most brilliant. I'm surprised you went with this over the "Hi Mommy!" You sent me. Guess I'll have to post it!
I have just decided that this is what I'll be doing with our plethora of tomatoes. It looks delicious! Do you peel them first or leave the skins on?
Skins on. If you don't like the skins being a little chunky, just puree the sauce in a blender before you put it in the freezer bags.
Yummy! Even more reason to build our garden boxes for next spring!
