Low Sodium Pizza Sauce ( SF, LC)

This pizza sauce is from my (very) low sodium days. If you don’t watch your sodium as much, do feel free to add a little sea salt to taste.

It’s quite tasty one way or another Smile

 

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Unsalted Butter
  • 1 whole Clove Of Garlic - Finely Minced (optional)
  • 1/4 cup Finely Chopped Onions
  • 2 teaspoons Vegit Low Sodium Seasoning Mix
  • ½ teaspoons Mrs Dash Table Blend
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Basil
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Fennel Seeds
  • 1 whole Bay Leaf
  • 1-½ teaspoon Splenda / Sugar substitute
  • 8 ounces, weight No-salt Added Crushed Tomatoes
  • 6 ounces, weight Tomato Paste (no Salt Added)
  • 12 ounces, fluid Water
  • 6 ounces, fluid diet Root Beer (I Use Hansen's Sugar Free No Sodium Root Beer)

Preparation:

Melt butter with olive oil in a large sauce pan. Add the onions and garlic and cook until onions are transparent.

Add everything else, bring to a boil and simmer on low for about 30 minutes. Remove the bay leaf if desired.

I usually like to run my pizza sauce through a blender before I use it, but that is optional too.

Can be canned or frozen for future use or keeps in the refrigerator for about 1 week.


Enjoy!
