I make a lot of pizza, so one thing I do to make it faster and cheaper is to can my own pizza sauce. But I kind of cheat. One year I tried Mrs. Wages Pizza Sauce mix and have been using it ever since. It’s fast & easy. You only need, tomatoes, a packet of mix and some sugar. You can find it at Wal*Mart for a couple of bucks and 1 packet makes enough for about 20 pizzas (depending on how saucy you like your pizza). Also It says to can it in pints but I always use 1/2 pints so I don’t have leftover sauce when I actually make the pizza. I can get 2 pizzas from 1/2 a pint.
*A*- I have other tomato recipes too, send me your email address and I’ll send you some!
FYI- Try buying it at the end of the season on clearance and saving it for next year.
Mrs. Wages also has lots of other products. The only other one I have tried it the Pasta Sauce and we liked it too, but only after it had set on the shelf for about 6 months. Weird, I know but it kind of mellows out over time. But I liked enough to make more this year.

HIP HIP HOORAY! Thank you so much for posting this! My e-mail is: andrastoker at yahoo dot com. Thanks a million. Do I just blend my tomatoes up in a blender add the sauce and then pressure cook it? How long? I'm in UT, elevation 5K Thanks a million. I LOVE your blog!
I'm making the pizza sauce right now and am wondering if yours is also very thin? I mixed 10 cups of pureed tomatoes in with the mix and sugar to make the sauce to equal the 5 pints the package says it makes. Is this what you do as well?
Does the pizza sauce thicken up over time
