My husband is an organic farmer and grows THE BEST tomatoes. Early Girl tomatoes are my favorite variety because they are so versatile - you can eat them raw with a sprinkle of salt or use them to make incredible tomato sauce.

Every year, there comes a time when we have bowls of tomatoes on the table and I'm faced with the challenge of how to use them all. One of my favorite ways to use them is this fast and easy tomato sauce. It takes less than thirty minutes to make and is so flavorful and delicious.

This sauce is rustic and doesn't involve peeling and de-seeding the tomatoes. The key is the butter, which gives the sauce a rich and luxurious flavor. Cook it when you're low on time, have a stash of fresh, in-season tomatoes, and want to make your family happy.
