1/2 bushel tomatoes (about a 5 gallon bucket full)
2 green peppers
3 hot peppers
3 lbs onions
2 cloves garlic
1 cup light olive oil
1-1 1/2 cup coconut palm sugar (adjust according to the sweetness of your tomatoes)
1/2 cup salt
2 Tbsp dried oregano
2 Tbsp dried basil
2 Tbsp dried parsley
6 bay leaves
8 (6 oz) cans tomato paste
Remove cores and bad spots from clean tomatoes and blend in batches. Add peppers, onions and garlic to some of the tomatoes in batches. Place all pureed vegetables in a large pot (or divide into 2 pots). Add all other ingredients. Simmer until cooked down to desired consistency. Fill clean pint jars with sauce. Water bath for 35 minutes or pressure can at 10 lbs pressure for 15 minutes. Yields 20-25 pints.

So, you don't peel the tomatoes? Sounds easy!

Not peeling the tomatoes is the best part, it's super easy! It does take awhile to cook down since everything is raw, but it gives you an opportunity to fold some laundry or clean a bathroom. :)
