Ingredients

1 15 ounce can tomato sauce low-sodium
1 6 ounce can tomato paste low sodium
2 cloves fresh garlic or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, washed and finely chopped or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon fresh basil, washed and finely chopped or 1 teaspoon dried basil

Instructions

Wash hands before working with food.
Put tomato paste into a bowl.
Whisk in a little tomato sauce to thin the paste. Add a little more sauce at a time and whisk until smooth.
Stir in seasonings.

Notes

Spread onto pizzas and top with cheese and your favorite washed veggies.
Store in a seal-able container until ready to use.
If we don’t have whole grain pizza crusts on hand, we like to use whole grain bagels because they are a little chewy and the pizza sauce doesn’t soak in.
