Directions
Blend the tomatoes whole—seeds and juice included—until smooth. Pour the pureed tomatoes into a container with a lid. Next, mix in the chopped green bell pepper, onion, lime juice, garlic, sea salt, oregano, and rosemary. Give everything a good stir to combine the flavors. Cover the container and pop it in the fridge for at least half an hour to let it chill and the flavors meld together.

Food Storage Tips
Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep well for up to three days. Stir gently before using, as some separation may occur naturally. Avoid freezing to maintain the fresh texture and flavor.
