From The Joy of Cooking. Perfect for when the basil bolts in July — I usually double or triple the batch. This can be a base sauce for lots of dishes, or just good over pasta with some fresh mozzarella and some grilled sausages on the side.
28 oz. can of whole tomatoes
1/3 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, halved
6 sprigs fresh basil
6 springs fresh parsley
Simmer together over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes. (Smash up the tomatoes with a spoon a bit). Remove from heat blend in your food processor or use an immersion blender. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

This "cookbook" is more for my own personal use than anything, but you are welcome to use any or all of the recipes listed. It has been driving me crazy that I have all these great recipes all scattered in my "recipe cupboard" and I can never find the right one or I forget about them, so I figured I'd compile them in a searchable blog! If you have a recipe you'd like to contribute, let me know. I am always looking for new, good recipes (especially easy ones- those are my favorite kind!) I will continue to add more as I have time or find something great!
