Big Mammas Pizza Sauce Factory..

We stayed in today, so made a big batch of pizza sauce for the freezer.
We use:
4 tins chopped tomatoes..2 value ones and 2 Napoli ones.
1 finely chopped onion,
1tablespn Italian herbs,
Dessertspn sugar,
Good squirt of garlic puree
Good squirt of tomato puree,
Salt and Pepper.
Saute the onion first to soften, then add all of the other ingredientsm and simmer gently for ages till the sauce is thick.
Pot up in plastic containers and freeze when cold.
This makes our signature tomato sauce for Sunday Pizzas, and is much much cheaper than buyingit. Tomato pizza sauce is now around a pound a jar so is quite an item.
Last night in the end we had a Quorn meatballs in goulash sauce, with 1/2 a packet of microwave basmati rice, and cabbage and leeks. Very tasty too.
Tonight we are having:
Something from the freezer, and vegetaables. I have some cauliflower left, and some baby carrots so will use those up.
