Been making for years - I love this sauce. Helps me to keep the sugar content low.

Basic tomato sauce - This sauce, its great. I blended for my homemade pizza, I have it with cannellini beans and baby spinach, with kidney beans, great topping sauce for boiled potatoes, peas, any veggie really and you can make your own hot sauce for your doritos, just add some chopped jalapenos and roasted cupsicum. Thanks for sharing!
