I love this sauce with zucchini noodles (find out how to make them here!) but it will work on anything. It's thick and hearty, and really delicious.
Place everything in the blender:
1 ripe tomato
1/2 red pepper, seeds removed
1/2 c sundried tomatoes in oil
1 small clove garlic
1 t dried basil
1 t dried oregano
1/4 t salt
2 Tb olive oil
dash pepper
Since this is raw, it's best to start with a small amount of garlic, even if you really love garlic; it will overpower the other flavors if you overdo it. Fresh herbs can definitely be used instead of dried; try increasing the herbs a bit if you're using them fresh.

This looks so delicious and different! I will have to try it once we get some peppers in this summer! Thanks for sharing on FF. We may not have had many hits when you posted. Best time to enter is usually the Friday and Saturday for the best views. I keep meaning to shorten the entry so people aren't disappointed, but I am usually rushing to put it :) Hope you come join us again!

ReplyI haven't see zucchini noodles before. Would you do it with meatballs or just plain?
ReplyHowever you like it would work! I love meatballs, but haven't had this sauce with them.
ReplyThis is gorgeous and so incredibly good for you! Love it!! Thank you for sharing this healthy dish at Fit and Fabulous Fridays!!
ReplyThank you!
ReplyWhat a fantastic pasta and sauce! The combination of flavours sounds delicious and I love the vibrant colours! Raw pasta & sauce is one of my favourite summer foods!
ReplyGreat post. I found this through Turning the Clock Back's What's Cooking Wednesday. I have linked in a post about some home-made steak burgers I did. Have a lovely week.
ReplyMellow, this looks amazing! I'm actually planning on trying the raw zucchini pasta this week - got some fresh zukes in the fridge for that - but never even thought about pairing it with a raw sauce! Oooh, I'm so excited to try a completely raw dish! Thanks for sharing at Tiny Tip Tuesday!
ReplyIt's a great summer meal. I'm inspired to make it again soon! I hope you love it.
ReplyMe too zucchini noodles - thanks for posting the link to the recipe!
ReplyI've got to try this! The noodles look intriguing. I'm hoping I can slip the zucchini word past the kids, lol! Thanks for sharing!
Replyohhh i'm going to pin that, looks delish!
ReplyYou can also peel the zucchini first, so it doesn't have the green tinge, if you think that will help your kids like them.
ReplyLooks GREAT!! My new favorite "noodles" is spaghetti squash! :)
ReplyBeautiful dish...and I'm sure it's delicious!
ReplyThis does look good, love the freshness and think I'll make mine with the last of the basil.
ReplyYum!
ReplyYUMMY, got this pinned and tweeted!
ReplyYour page is proof, that healthy eating looks and tastes delicious! More people should eat exactly like that. Thank you for sharing this at Wednesday Extravaganza - Hope to see you there again this week with more deliciousness :)

ReplyLove, love, love this! I made a similar raw marinara last week. I've been putting it on everything in sight including salads! Thanks for sharing this one at Raw Foods Thursdays too!!
ReplySharing this post at RFT tomorrow!
ReplyDidn't realize marinara sauce could be made so easily. Definitely going to pin it! :)
ReplyWould love to have you share it at my Healthy Tuesday hop if you're interested. :) http://ahumblebumble.blogspot.com/2013/02/healthy-tuesday-hop-28.html
It looks nice but do your kids like it? I think it would be a bit rich for mine.
ReplyThanks for linking to The sunday showcase
My kids will eat anything if you give them shredded cheese to sprinkle on top ;)
ReplyI admit this is not a kid favorite around here, and our kids don't go for rich foods like Nik & I do, but my 7 year old loves this dish if it has chunks of sundried tomatoes in it.
This is the best! I had a humongous plate of zucchini pasta with your marinara this evening... Nom nom nom :)
ReplyOh that's awesome! I'm so glad you liked it.
ReplyThis looks so good. Thanks for posting at Wildcrafting Wednesday.
