Yum, I just did something similar for the pizza that I made last night. It’s sooo much better than store bought, don’t you think? And easy too!

I never thought to put it in the blender! I usually mix diced tomatoes with seasonings, but I think I will definitely prefer the texture after it’s been pureed. Thanks!
