  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 green pepper, chopped
  • 2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 Tbsp. vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp. ground cumin

Tips & Substitutions

For a deeper flavor, try roasting the tomatoes before adding them to the sauce. If you don't have ground cumin, ground coriander or smoked paprika can be used as substitutes. You can also add other vegetables like zucchini or carrots for added nutrition. This sauce can easily be made vegan by ensuring the vinegar is plant-based. Consider making a larger batch for meal prep.

Serving Suggestions

This sauce pairs beautifully with grilled chicken or fish and is also fantastic drizzled over rice or quinoa. For a complete meal, serve it alongside a refreshing Cucumber Salad With Dill or a simple No Fat Rice And Vegetable Dish. It can also be used as a marinade for meats, enhancing their flavor before cooking.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat, gently warm on the stove over low heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. If the sauce thickens too much, add a splash of water to achieve your desired consistency. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
