Recipe Notes
If making a pizza dough feels like too much work then apply the sauce lightly on a bread, top with vegetables or meat, add cheese and broil till the cheese melts and the bread browns. Makes an easy and quick snack.
For an different twist add green chillies to the puree. Use the herbs of your choice. Some herbs like thyme can be overpowering so use accordingly.
