  • 3 1/2 lbs Ripe Tomatoes
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • 2 Cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Cup finely chopped Onion
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh basil leaves


  • 1 1/2 Teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream

  • Dip tomatoes in boiling water for 30 seconds, or until skins start to split. Dip in cold water. Remove skins and core tomatoes. Chop coarsely and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then add onion and cook for 4-5 min. or until tender. Add tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 min., stirring occasionally.
