So yummy! I made this using a can of fire roasted tomatoes. The anchovy paste was left out as I seemed to be out. The ingredients were placed into the Vita-Mix container and whirled until smooth. This was served with some sauteed chicken sausage over gluten free penne pasta and I have enough sauce to either freeze or have again. Something I will make again. Made for Aussie Swap.
