"It is also really low calorie and good for you as an added benefit, but regardless it is the most flavorful sauce I have ever made.This recipe is for canning, however, you can always make a smaller batch for your family if you don’t can."

ingredients

5 quarts tomatoes, cut up
1 green bell pepper
1 onion
4 bay leaves
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic
2 teaspoons basil
4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon oregano

directions

Blend tomatoes, green pepper, and onion in food processor.Add spices and bake in large pan at 325 degrees for 3 or 4 hours, or until cooked down by half. If your sauce is still not thick enough, use ½ to ¾ tsp cornstarch with water and add to boiling mixture.
Stir well. Put in hot jars and process to seal, using Blue Book for times. I add a teaspoon of lemon juice to the top of each jar to help maintain the color.
Use 1 pint for 2 pizzas.
