My favorite pizza sauce

I realized the other day that my favorite pizza sauce didn’t have a post of its own. I mean, I’ve shared the recipe before, but only on other pizza recipes. And, since it’s such a favorite in this house now, I thought it deserved a nice little space all its own!

We use it all the time. If there isn’t a jar in the fridge, I’ve probably stashed it in the freezer. Just thaw it in the microwave, or take it out of the freezer the day before you want to use it.

It’s thick and rich, with a little sweetness and a little heat. It’s filled with herbs and spices, and requires no cooking! Just stir it all together. Super easy and yummy! And, it goes great on lots of different pizzas.

    I’m so glad you gave your pizza sauce the recognition it deserves with its own post:-) It sounds absolutely perfect.

    Christine, I always used to use the jarred stuff too. But once we used this sauce, we never went back. It’s super easy and really yummy!

    This looks wonderful! I’ve always wanted to try to make my own and store it for quick meals later. I’ll have to save this one and give it a shot.

    Huh. I never realized the difference in marinara vs. pizza sauce. We love to make our own pizzas, so I will have to use this next time!

    I’ve never tried making homemade pizza sauce, but I will now. This is something that would go over well at my house.
