I love homemade pizza, and I’ve developed a pizza sauce (after many, many failures) that is absolutely delicious. I make the pizza dough in my bread machine, but you could also use this sauce on the Pillsbury canned pizza dough or on frozen pizza dough. The whole thing goes together in the food processor, and there’s no cooking at all involved.

Homemade Pizza Sauce

1 28 oz. can of diced tomatoes (you can substitute crushed)

2-4 tsp. minced refrigerated garlic

1 tbsp. tomato sauce

1-2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil

a few crushed red pepper flakes

salt and pepper to taste

4 tbsp. pesto

Italian seasoning to taste

Dump everything into the food processor and pulse for a few seconds. Taste. If you want to kick it up a notch, add more pesto and Italian seasoning. Spread on your pizza dough, add toppings and cook. You’ll love it!
