Home-made pizza sauce brings your pizza to another level – and it’s so easy to make!
There is no cooking involved until it’s on your pizza dough and in the oven and you can make a batch and freeze it so it’s ready the next time you make pizza.
I leave the herbs out until I use the sauce on my pizza so I can adjust based on the toppings. This also allows you to use fresh herbs when in season.

Tips
Allow about 1/4 cup of sauce for a 12-inch pizza
Make your sauce the night before for pizza the next day when making it fresh
You can store any leftover sauce in the fridge for up to 7 days in an airtight container
You can also store any extra sauce in the freezer for later use
When storing in the freezer, portion it out into 1/4 cup servings in freezer-safe bags so you can just pull out a single serving if you only need a small amount
Lay the bags flat in the freezer so it’s quicker to defrost
