Annika's Pizza & Pasta Sauce

Submitted by VeggieCook98

"I love this recipe for making pizza, on pasta, and sometimes I even eat it as a soup! You don't have to cook this in a slow cooker. You can heat it up on the stove, then blend as usual. You can can also add more or less garlic depending on your personal preference."

Wow, this is such a tasty tomato sauce! Loved the flavours in this one and also how easy it was to make. I, too, made it on the stove top and that worked out well. I left mine a bit runnier as I wanted to use it as a pasta sauce. YUM!<br/>Oh and I used only 3 ts of herbs for half the recipe as that was plenty for me.<br/>Thank you so much for sharing this keeper with us, Veggie Cook!

I used this as a pizza sauce...but simmered gently on the stove top rather than the slow cooker.<br/>A good tasting sauce,that's really easy to whip up.<br/>Made for PRMR.

Made this as a pizza sauce, following it right on down to & including the blending of the final product! Wonderful tasting & a great sauce for pizza, done this way! Another time I'll probably do a double batch & then freeze some of it! Also will make it again, but as a chunky pasta sauce & just chop up the whole tomatoes a bit! Thanks for posting this very nice recipe! [Made & reviewed in the special event All Aboard the L-O-V-E Train!]
