Instructions
Wash and dry your basil. Remove the stems and chiffonade cut it.
Pour the can of tomatoes into a bowl. If they are whole tomatoes, you can snip them in pieces with kitchen shears or crush them by hand. Be careful of splatter if you crush them by hand! They can have juice trapped inside, and it will spray on your counter and clothes if you’re not careful.
Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Taste for salt and add more if desired.
