Step 1

Prep all your veggies. Place all ingredients in the pot and stir to combine. You want to make sure your veggies are just covered with water, so add more depending on size of your pot.

Step 2

Bring veggies to a boil over high flame. Once there, reduce flame to medium-low and let simmer for up to 45 minutes. You will know it is done when the beets are easily pierced with a fork and most of the liquid has evaporated. About 1 cup of liquid should remain.

Step 3

Carefully transfer your veggies to a blender. Add your lemon juice. To make sure your blender doesn't explode from the heat and pressure, don't place your blender lid on all the way and cover it with a towel so you don't get burned. Blend it till you reach your desired consistency. Taste for seasoning.

Step 4

Use right away on your pizza as you would any other red sauce. This keeps in the fridge for up to a week and in the freezer for up to 3 months.
