Instructions

  • Drain the tomatoes, squeezing them a bit to get most of the juice out, and reserving the juice.
  • Place the drained tomatoes, garlic, oregano, olive oil, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
  • Add the grated parmesan cheese and pulse a couple more times until the sauce is as smooth or chunky as desired.

Notes

*This will make enough sauce for at least 2 large pizzas. Leftovers can be frozen.
