Dave's Pizza Sauce

If you are looking for a great plant-based pizza sauce recipe, my brother-in-law has a great recipe for pizza sauce that he consented to share and publish on this blog:

Dave's Pizza Sauce

Ingredients:
2 - 6 ounce cans tomato paste
12 oz water
2 tablespoons dried basil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
1 teaspoon granulated onion (unless of course like me you are allergic)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

In a mixing bowl add tomato paste.  Fill tomato pase can with water, then add to bowl.  Measure the basil and oregano into the palm of your hand, rub together into bowl.  Add remaining ingredients.  Whisk together until the tomato paste is smooth.  Put a lid on the bowl or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, at least four hours (up to 24 hours--the longer the better.)
Keep any left-overs covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.  If the sauce seems too thick, just add a little more water.
Makes enough sauce for two 16" pizzas.  Also great as a dipping sauce for breadsticks.
