I love to make a big batch of this and keep it on hand in the fridge, either to make a homemade crust pizza or just to do my bread pizzas pictured above! ( I just used store-bought wheat bread for these.) You can even add in pureed vegetables to add a health punch. Some of my favorites are pureed carrots or butternut squash.
I like a tangier sauce which is what the tomato paste adds. You can do half and half (sauce and paste) if you are using the pureed veggies.

the pizza sauce.

This is great, Kelly! We have a friend who is the bread man and he gives us Boboli crusts all the time, but my daughter does not like the sauce! Can’t wait to give this version a try! (and add some hidden veggies:)
Love how easy you make you site…the printable version button is great! thanks for all you do!

Thanks for this recipe! My boys love homemade pizza, but I don’t love the price of Pizza Quick sauce. I had been thinking of pureeing some of the cheap pasta sauce I have to see if it would work, but this is a much better alternative!
`Can you freeze this sauce?
Definitely! I freeze it in one portion servings, enough to sauce one pizza.
How long is it good for in the fridge?
never mind i just saw the note that says one week 🙂
Did you post the bread/pizza recipe? I don’t see it. Thank you!
