Copycat Pizzeria Pizza Sauce
I don't know about you, but my family has a designated pizza night every week. For us, it's Fridays.
We either order takeout from our favorite pizzeria, or I make pizza from scratch . Over the years, I've been playing around with this Pizza Sauce Recipe, and I finally nailed it!
This homemade pizza sauce tastes so fresh, has a great texture, and it tastes as if it came from your favorite pizzeria! The secret to my sauce is that I use canned whole tomatoes, and I DON'T cook it! I blend it up and ladle it onto my favorite pizza!

Is pizza sauce and marinara sauce the same?
While the ingredients for pizza sauce and spaghetti sauce are similar, there is one main difference. Pizza sauce is uncooked while pasta sauce is cooked.
Can I use pasta sauce on pizza?
Yes, you can, but it would be a little thin. I would mix this sauce with a 4 ounce can of tomato paste and double the herbs and garlic in the recipe below.
What cheese is best for pizza?
My favorites are whole milk mozzarella (MUST be whole milk and not part-skim) and Parmesan. But you can get super fancy and add other cheeses such as gouda, goat, and ricotta.
Recipe Notes:
- When I make this recipe, I like to make a double batch and freeze the rest. I divide the pizza sauce among small freezer-safe containers. This way, I pull what I need from the freezer when I need it.
- This sauce will keep for up to 6 months in the freezer. Just defrost it in the refrigerator overnight and give it a good stir before using.
- This sauce will keep for up to 1 week in the refrigerator when kept in an airtight container. Just give it a quick stir before using it!
- If you love garlic, then add an extra clove to the recipe below!
