4 medium tomatoes, halved and seeded (but not very thoroughly seeded)
1 small red bell pepper, stem and seeds removed
1 celery rib
13 almonds, soaked overnight and drained (cashews might be a good sub)
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons seedless raisins (or dates)
1 teaspoon dried basil (or 2 Tbsp fresh)
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/2 teaspoon sea salt, the celery alone probably has enough saltiness (optional)
1 dash cayenne pepper (to taste)
2 garlic cloves, bitter centers removed
1 cup water, boiling

Steps:

Toss into Vita-Mix in the order above, do the variable speed 1-to-10-then-High routine, and blend for about a minute or to whatever texture and degree of heat you like. Might get a bit bitter if you leave it over night.
