How to Make Annika's Pizza Pasta Sauce
- **Sauté Aromatics (Stovetop Method):** Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 4 cloves minced garlic and 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (or more, to taste). Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- **Combine Ingredients (Both Methods):** Add 2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the saucepan (or slow cooker). Stir well to combine.
- **Simmer (Stovetop):** Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Alternatively, slow cook on low for 6-8 hours.
- **Blend (Both Methods):** Carefully transfer the sauce to a blender (in batches if needed) and blend until smooth. For a chunkier sauce, blend for a shorter time.
- **Serve:** Reheat if necessary and serve over your favorite pizza, pasta, or enjoy it as a delicious soup. Garnish with fresh basil or parmesan cheese!
- Enjoy!
