Whisk together bone broth, tomato paste, and cornstarch mixed with water

Notes
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost from frozen and reheat in the microwave or in a skillet on the stove.
If you like, you can run the diced tomatoes through a food processor for a more uniform texture in the sauce.
