Farmer's MArket tomatoes made into pasta sauce

When we were at the farmer's market we picked out these colorful cherry tomatoes for a cooking project. Will we have more red, more yellow, or more orange tomatoes? We had so many red and orange tomatoes that we ran out of space for them on our graph. We also graphed whether or not we liked tomatoes. More people like them than do not. I wonder if they will like them when they are cooked in our pasta sauce?

The tomatoes were washed and the stems taken off. The little green stems looked like little green spiders.

We cut up the tomatoes.

A sawing motion with our knives worked better than pressing down on our knives.

We chopped garlic,

and basil,

and fresh oregano from a friend's garden.

We put the ingredients into the food processor and pushed the button. It whirled them around and chopped them up small.

Then we cooked it all together in a hot pan.

With whole grain pasta and Parmesan cheese it's ready for eating!

Will we like it? Just look at these faces!

It's fun to slurp up the noodles!

A hearty two thumbs up for our pasta with fresh tomato sauce!
