If you want a sauce that adds a lot to anything you put it on, I recommend Alton Brown's tomato sauce, adding a decent amount of fresh basil to the recipe if it's in season near you makes it even better but isn't necessary https://altonbrown.com/recipes/pantry-friendly-tomato-sauce/
It's more work than just cooking down tomatoes, but it's so worth it. I do double, triple, or quadruple batches and freeze it in 32 oz mason jars. Great on eggs, pizza, pasta, base for soups, burgers, and anything else you want tomato flavor added to really
I did that once and while it was great it took forever to process the tomatoes. Now I just brown some onions in a pan, deglaze with some wine, and dump the tomatoes in and simmer them while I work on the pasta. Way fewer dishes, too.
I don't have any basil or oregano in my garden (yet) but the amount I get at the store is enough for five or six jars of sauce. So I portion out the rest and then wrap them in plastic wrap and store it in my freezer. That way as long as I've got tomatoes, onions, and garlic I can make sauce.
Been there made that. The flavors are dulled a noticeable amount compared to a sauce made with fresh ripe tomatoes.
