This 5 minute pizza sauce boasts the flavorful blend of fresh basil and garlic. So good you won’t ever want to order delivery again!
This pizza sauce is not only easy, it’s the best pizza sauce I’ve ever had, seriously! Since discovering the recipe in a magazine and tweaking it, I won’t even consider using another one. Like my kids, I don’t care for sauces with chunks of tomato, mushroom or peppers, and this has none of that.
If you order pizza regularly, then you need to stop! To make homemade pizza even easier, rather than making crust from scratch, I buy ready-made pizza dough from my local grocery store deli. Let’s face it, when you’ve had a long week and are just ready for the weekend to begin, this is the perfect solution. Simply stop by the store on your way home from work and you’re ready to go.
One recipe makes enough for two 8-inch pizzas, but you can always double or triple it if you’re having friends over.
If you've got 5 minutes and these 5 ingredients, then you've got the makings for an easy pizza sauce!
