Don't Look a Gift Horse in the Mouth

Yesterday I looked through a box of tomatoes we had been gifted with. I looked a gift horse in the mouth! So many of them were rotten! Literally black with holes and bugs crawling in them... Yikes!

I was thinking this over and to be honest muttering to myself about why would someone give away rotten tomatoes. I was pierced in my heart when I felt God saying "Why are you turning up your nose at My provision?" God forgive me! It was a blessing! A gift from God through a generous person.

I picked through and did get many nice big ones that were beautiful. There were enough that I could make 4 batches of spaghetti sauce! God is good. I am grateful that He works on me and that He does provide so abundantly our every need.

So I made spaghetti sauce yesterday afternoon and I thought I would share the recipe I use.

Spaghetti Sauce
3 cloves garlic
1 medium onion
1/2 medium green pepper, diced
2 cups chopped fresh tomatoes with juice
6 oz. can tomato paste
1 tsp. dried Italian herbs or to taste
1 beef bouillon cube (I used Better than Bouillon)
1/2 tsp. salt
-In a large pot over medium heat saute veggies until soft
-Stir in remaining ing. and simmer until hot through.
Enjoy!

Happy Tuesday!
Blessings,
