SIMPLE STEWED TOMATOES



Simple Stewed Tomatoes image

Another one of those days when I needed some stewed tomatoes, and had none. Came up with this and they turned out great. You can use as much or as little of the listed ingredients as desired along with the canned tomatoes. I simmer until the veggies are tender and the liquid is reduced and thick. Goes great over a pile of my Recipe #282180 and steamed broccoli.
