The Best From Scratch Pizza Sauce Recipe

The Best From Scratch Pizza Sauce Recipe uses my Sourdough Pizza Crust and it is our family’s ‘go-to’ for Friday night pizzas!

This pizza sauce is a nice balance of savory flavors from the herbs and slightly sweet from the tomatoes. It’s so very easy to make and a healthier alternative to expensive canned pizza sauces found at the grocery store.
