Pizza Sauce

This pizza sauce is very tasty, and easy to make.  It can also be used as dipping sauce for breadsticks, mozzarella sticks, or whatever else you like.

Prep Time: About 10-15 minutes
Ready to use in: 2 hours

If you're using this sauce for making the homemade pizza from this blog (blog keyword search "Pizza"), prepare the sauce before starting into the pizza.  The longer this pizza sauce sits, the better the flavors blend.  For best results, make the day before using, so that it sits overnight in the refrigerator.  It can, however, be used after about 2 hours if you're in a time crunch.

What You'll Need:
1 8oz. can tomato sauce
1 6oz. can tomato paste
1 tsp. Oregano
1 tsp. Basil
1 tsp. Garlic Powder
1 tsp. Paprika
1 tsp. White Sugar
1 tsp. White Vinegar
1/2 tsp. Onion Powder
1/2 tsp. Black Pepper
1/4 tsp. Salt
2 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a non-metallic bowl and mix until well blended. The acids in tomatoes will do not-so-nice things to bowls made of metal, so use a Tupperware container with a lid so you can just mix the ingredients and pop it in the fridge.
