The ingredients for The Best Home Made Pizza and Pasta Sauce are:

2 cans diced tomatoes
1 t. Italian seasoning
1 t. basil
1 t. fennel seed
1/2 to 1 t. crushed red pepper
1 t. olive oil
1 to 2 clove minced garlic
1 T. brown sugar
1/2 medium onion, diced

Here is how you make The Best Home Made Pizza and Pasta Sauce:

Put all ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth then pour sauce mixture into a sauce pan. Cook uncovered on medium heat until sauce has reduced by half.Makes about 2 cups, depending on how much you reduce the sauce. I usually have closer to 2-1/2 or 3 cups but that just means there are even less calories per serving than shown. Keeps nicely in a glass pint jar in the frig.Note: you can substitute 8 fresh Roma tomatoes, skins removed, for the canned tomatoes. To remove the skin bring a pot of water to a boil then add the fresh whole tomatoes, allowing to cook for about 30 seconds. Remove tomatoes and rinse with cold water. The skins should be easy to peel after this. I usually then just use the same pot I boiled the water in to cook the sauce. If using fresh tomatoes or unsalted canned tomatoes you will need to add salt, about 1 to 2 teaspoons, to taste.Makes 8 1/4-cup servings.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user QUERIAN.
