I made this recipe extra easy by using a jar of tomato pasta sauce, but you can also make your own homemade pizza sauce easily. Here's my favorite pizza sauce recipe from The America’s Test Kitchen Family Baking Book: tablespoons olive oil, 2 cloves garlic, 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes (extra points if you home can them, which I do every summer!)—In a small sauce pan, cook the oil and garlic together over medium heat until the garlic starts to smell good. Add the tomatoes and simmer until the sauce thickens a bit, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
