So, I got online and looked for a fairly simple pizza sauce recipe. I found one and had most of the ingredients. On Saturday I stopped and bought tomatoes in puree, tomato paste and garlic to complete the ingredient gathering. That evening (before the Husker game that did not end up in our favor) Meighan and I made a pizza!
I put the sauce together (smelled about right!), cooked some hamburger, opened the refrigerated pizza dough (I don't have time to make it from scratch), we spread it out on the stone on top of some corn meal, I spread the sauce on, we put the hamburger on, she put the pepperonis on, and she sprinkled the cheese on! Voila! A pizza!
We cooked it 13-17 minutes and we ate it and were quite impressed with how it tasted! It was big enough that we even had leftovers! I even have enough sauce left to make 4 more pizzas that size! I froze 3 containers. Today I found out that Rotella's has pizza dough for $1.07! I'm goin' there next time!
Here's the recipe:
Pizza Sauce
1 28 oz can tomatoes (puree)
1/4 c. tomato paste
2 t. sugar
2 T. fresh basil (or 1 T dried)
2 t. fresh oregano (or 1 t. dried)
2-4 cloves garlic, minced (I used 2)
1/4 t. salt
1/4 t. pepper
Put all ingredients in blender. Blend until smooth. Makes 3 cups.
Here's pics!
We were so hungry and excited to try it that I forgot to take a picture before we dug in!
