#806: Homemade Pizza Sauce

We eat a lot of pizza sauce in this house.  We almost always have a jar on hand in the pantry.  So when I saw this recipe on Pinterest I was eager to try making it.  It was extremely easy to make and I got a lot of pizza sauce out of this.  I don't know if I'll buy pizza sauce again.  This way will save us a ton of money!
 
2 Cans of Crushed Tomatoes
1 Can of Tomato Paste
2 Tablespoons Minced Garlic
1 ½ Teaspoons Dried Basil
1 ½ Tablespoons Dried Oregano
2 Teaspoons Onion Powder
¾ Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Sugar
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

Start by finding a large, deep pot. Heat the pot over medium heat. Pour in the olive oil and your minced garlic. Sautee the garlic until it is golden brown; this takes about five minutes. Remove the pot from the lit burner and stir in the oregano, basil, onion powder, sugar, and salt. Add in the tomato paste. Mix well and fast, being careful not to burn the ingredients. Next, slowly incorporate the crushed tomatoes.  Allow the sauce to simmer down to your desired thickness, stirring every five minutes or so.
