Description

Take your pizza night to the next level with the best Homemade Pizza Sauce recipe. Made with just a handful of ingredients, this easy recipe comes together in just moments and doesn't even need to be cooked! The flavor is so much better than the jarred stuff from the store, too. You'll never go back! 


Ingredients

  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine tomato sauce, tomato paste and olive oil. Mix well with a spoon until smooth.
  2. Stir in sugar, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
  3. Spread on pizza dough or serve as a dipping sauce. You can store the pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5 days or in a freezer for 3 months.

Notes

How to store: Store leftover pizza sauce in a glass jar in the fridge for 4-5 days. 

How to freeze: To save this great pizza sauce for later, fill a small freezer container like a glass mason jar. If freezing glass, leave an inch of headspace to allow for expansion. Store any jars of pizza sauce in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge before adding to your favorite pizza dough recipe.
