Lara's Pizza Sauce

I made this sauce last year but I decided to tweak it a little bit more for the best most amazing pizza sauce. I ended up with a half case of seconds tomatoes from a guy on the side of the road selling produce. The guy gave me all the tomatoes for free plus I had a couple of tomatoes from my garden to add to this sauce. I always make my pizza dough from scratch and it's so nice to be able to open up a jar of sauce that's ready to use.
