Okay so I admit it. I’ve been so guilty in the past of buying jars of pizza sauce. But there’s really no need to when you can SO EASILY throw it together at home. Not only is it a lot cheaper, it tastes so much better!
I made this sauce last week when making homemade pizza dough. It’s so easy to make it’s elementary. I always keep pizza sauce on-hand because it’s nice to be able to throw together a pizza for dinner at the last minute.
Homemade pizza sauce doesn’t get much easier than this!

Very similar to my own recipe. Instead of sugar I substitute honey, and I also add a teaspoon of onion powder.

can this be made without the oregano? or a substitute
Hi Tracy, you can omit the oregano and just add a little more Italian seasoning until you get it to your liking (but remember Italian seasoning includes oregano also). Hope you enjoy!
Fantastic! No heartburn! So good! I will never buy store brand again! Thank you!
Thanks so very much… so glad you enjoyed it, Mic! 🙂
