This was a good sauce, but I found it to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if there had been less sugar added. Otherwise, it was a very easy and quick sauce to make.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sauce turned out great! I used a combination of Roma and cherry tomatoes and they worked perfectly. I also added a bit of red pepper flakes for a little extra spice. This sauce is definitely a keeper!

I'm not a big fan of sun-dried tomatoes, but this sauce was delicious! The combination of fresh and sun-dried tomatoes gave it a really complex flavor. I served it over pasta and it was a hit with my family. I definitely won't be hesitant to make it
