Homemade Pizza Sauce

Homemade Pizza Sauce

1 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 a small to medium onion, diced
3 - 4 garlic cloves, minced
2 - 8 oz cans no salt tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon dried oregano 
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 to 1 teaspoon Kosher salt 
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced onion. Sauté until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for another 2 minutes. Garlic should be golden and fragrant and onions should be soft. 

Add the tomato sauce to the pot and all seasonings. Stir. Once sauce begins to bubble, reduce heat to medium low. Let cook for at least 15 minutes, longer if you have the time or while you prep and cook your pizza crust. Store in a air tight container with a lid.
