Tomato Sauce with Black Beans


This is a really simple and quick sauce that has a sweet vinegar flavour. I use two kinds of tomatoes to give some additional texture - diced and petite diced - but any canned tomatoes and/or fresh ones will be fine. The sugars are all natural, from the tomatoes, and the black beans give a great serving of fiber - 8g in total.

Try it with my Sweet Potato Gnocchi:
