red pizza sauce

Make this rich, red pizza sauce with basic pantry ingredients! This pizza sauce recipe is so delicious and ready in about 5 minutes. Recipe yields about 1 3/4 cups, enough for about 2 large pizzas.

Easy Pizza Sauce

tomato paste

(14 ounces) crushed tomatoes,* fire-roasted or regular

olive oil

garlic, pressed

balsamic vinegar

oregano

salt

coconut sugar or brown sugar (optional)

Measure the tomato paste into a small mixing bowl. Add a big splash of the crushed tomatoes and whisk until the tomato paste is fully incorporated.

Pour in the rest of the tomatoes, then add the olive oil, garlic, vinegar, oregano and salt. Whisk to blend.

Taste, and if the mixture is too acidic (tomatoes vary in flavor from can to can), stir in a little sugar to balance it out. Use as desired. Leftover pizza sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or you can freeze it for several months.

I have used my own recipe for pizza sauce and the only thing omitted is the vinegar. Lots of Oregano  plus 2 Tb of Olive oil and a touch of Romano Cheese; plus fresh pressed garlic makes it a snap to prepare and freeze the leftovers. Voila!

Kate,

Thank you for being a blessing in my life. After experiencing a stroke a few months ago, I found you through Google using advanced Boolean search terms. 

Your recipes have done so much to keep me within my nutritional goals. You rock!

Hi Cookie &amp; Kate
We want to make your pizza sauce &amp; crust. 
We are in Colorado at about 7400 feet elevation.. 
Do i have to do any crust adjustments for the altitude?
Thank you! 
PS you have the best recipes!

Cookie &amp; Kate,
 Thank you for the reply..
I will experiment with the crust &amp; see what works then I'll post it in the comments..
We can't be the only one at altitude that adore your recipes.. 
You know i never had had a good vegetarian meal until i found you 2 gems!
Thanks again!

I'm new to making my own pizzas &amp;  had been just winging my pizza sauce. This recipe was far better than anything I'd done - primarily due to the addition of balsamic vinegar - had not thought of that &amp; it was a real game-changer. I did add some dried basil to mine &amp; didn't have crushed tomatoes so I just used tomato sauce. Still delicious. And super easy - I thought I needed to cook it first - this made pizza nights so much easier. Thank you!
