Ultimate Pizza Sauce Recipe #114392
This recipe was given to me as a wedding present, written on the inside cover of a Pizza Cookbook. It is thick, saucy, spicy, and delicious. I'll never use anything else on my homemade pizzas. I like to double or triple it and but it in ziploc bags in my freezer.
