2 cups diced tomatoes
2 cups diced onion
4 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/8 cup lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons honey
1/4 cup chopped fresh lemon zest
Shred tomatoes into bite-size pieces. Place them in jars. Cover packages with sturdy aluminum foil, and shake vigorously to shake except with whites. Place lids onto jars, and secure with kitchen twine or fork. Fill with tomato juice using a rolling pin; drain. Adjust tomato paste to taste. Spread lemon juice over jars; refrigerate.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once heated, gradually add the lemon juice while stirring constantly. Sprinkle with the usual salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to thicken; about 5 minutes. Transfer tomato jars onto plate, and pour lemon juice over them, covering completely. Top with lemon zest.
