Exquisite Pizza Sauce
We make homemade pizza fairly often in our house. This is our absolute favorite sauce and really ups the yummy of the pizza. Chaz finds it is a bit spicy but Brian and I love the kick so every other batch I leave out the cayenne pepper and pepper flakes. I can get at least two pizzas out of a batch. So I just freeze the leftovers and thaw them in the microwave when I need them.
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
6 fluid oz warm water
3 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese (I have left this out with no problems but we prefer it in there)
1 tsp minced garlic
2 Tbsp honey
3/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp marjoram
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/8 tsp dried red pepper flakes
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
salt to taste
Mix everything together in a small bowl, breaking up any clumps.
Let sit for at least 30 mins, then spread over dough and prepare pizza as desired.

We often make pizza at home - but I had never made the sauce. I gave this a try and love it! This will be the regular on our pizza. I was a little worried that the honey flavor would be over-powering, but once it was all combined it was perfect.
ps - i did go light on the heat ingredients.
