Tomato and Herb Sauce (Homemade, Low Oil)

Tomato and Herb Sauce (Homemade, Low Oil) is a simple homemade tomato-and-herb condiment often used in Mediterranean and Italian-style cooking as a pasta sauce, topping or dip. It’s known for bright tomato flavor combined with herbs like basil, oregano and parsley and is typically prepared with little added oil. Nutritionally it is very light and vegetable-forward, providing modest fiber and protein while staying low in fat and calories; it also supplies about 12mg of vitamin C per 100g, contributing some immune- and skin-supporting antioxidant vitamin. Because it’s homemade with little oil, it’s a lower-fat way to add tomato flavor to dishes without relying on heavy sauces. This style of sauce is nutrient-dense for its calories and delivers antioxidant carotenoids (from tomatoes) along with useful fiber, making it a healthful finishing sauce or base for many recipes.
