I get tired of running to the store to pick up things when I'm out when I really could make them at home. That's how I ran across this pizza sauce recipe. And much to my delight...the store-bought pizza sauce was not even comparable to this recipe. This makes quite a large batch so I just froze the leftovers in a muffin tin. Once frozen, I just popped them out, stuck them in a baggie and the freezer and we were good to go. I found the full muffin tin size was perfect for one pizza.
3 cloves of garlic
2 tbsp olive oil
1 (28 oz) can tomato puree
1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp basil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes.
Saute garlic in oil. Stir in remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes or until sauce reaches desired thickness.
