Crystalina Ketterman (United States) says:
Oh my goodness! I made this recipe tonight for dinner, and it was amazing! I cheated on the ingredients and used the dried spice rack versions, like celery salt, and dried basil and minced onions, and it was great!! Next time I make it, i'll use the fresh stuff, because this is one great recipe!

I made the recipe without changes. Fresh ingredients all 'round. Great taste! This goes in my 'save' box.
110 calories, add crackers for another 100 calories.

My boyfriend, roommate, and myself devoured the entire pot for dinner! And none of us are tomato fans (except tomato soup and ketchup), so don't be afraid to make this recipe if you're not a tomato fanatic.
*** Suggestions: Add some brown sugar to taste and have cheese cloth or something on hand to strain out seeds and still keep juice. Blender worked really nice to smooth it out. Excited to make it with half and half next time too :)

Excellent recipe. We had a bumper crop of tomatos and basil so we canned over 2 gallons. The recipe scaled up without problems.

John Burks (Minnesota) says:
Easily tripled. Used the same sieve we use for tomato sauce. A couple of grilled cheese sandwiches and a perfect end of summer meal.
