Where did I find it?
I was making a recipe that called for pizza sauce and I didn't have any on hand, but I did have canned chopped tomatoes and some fresh basil. So I decided to puree the basil and tomatoes and cook down until I got a thick texture like pizza sauce.
Why do I like it?
This recipe is so easy to prepare using ingredients commonly found in the pantry. I freeze fresh basil so that I always have some on hand. There are no objectionable ingredients like sugar, preservatives or other unpronounceable words.
