Equipment
- Small Mixing Bowl:
- Whisk or Spoon:
- Measuring Spoons

Ingredients
- 1 can 8 oz Tomato Sauce
- 3 tbsp Tomato Paste
- 2 tbsp White Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
- 1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/8 tsp Black Pepper
- 1/4 tsp Paprika
Instructions
Combine the Bases
- Start by pouring your tomato sauce into a mixing bowl. Add the tomato paste to the bowl as well.
Add the Sweetener
- Pour the white sugar into the tomato mixture. Stir it well so the sugar starts to dissolve.
Season the Sauce
- Add the garlic powder, onion powder, and dried oregano. Sprinkle in your salt, pepper, and the bright paprika.
Whisk Until Smooth
- Use your whisk to blend everything together very well. Make sure there are no clumps of tomato paste left.
Let the Flavors Meld
- Let the sauce sit for about fifteen minutes. This helps the dry herbs soften and release their oils.
Taste and Adjust
- Taste a small spoonful of your homemade pizza sauce. Add more sugar if you want it even sweeter.
