The best homemade pizza sauce recipe! It takes just a few minutes to throw together from scratch. I love this quick and easy recipe because it is rich and thick, the perfect complement to your cheesy slice. You can whirl it in the blender for 5 minutes or cook it on the stove for a little more impact.
