We have homemade pizza every week. The kids make their own pizzas so I get the night off cooking. By using homemade pizza sauce and a second portion of veggies on top of the pizza, it’s a healthy balanced meal – just don’t tell my kids that!

Add the tomato puree into the pan.
Boil it for a good 15 minutes.
Blend the tomatoes until they are smooth.
Add the spices.
Ladle the pizza sauce into clean jam jars. Wipe the rims clean and secure the lids.
Boil in a hot water bath canner for 35 mins at boiling point, 100 degrees Celsius.

When I’m not spending time with my children and menagerie, I’m usually to be found in my craft room creating and blogging or in the kitchen cooking up a big batch of something tasty. I’m always looking for thrifty hacks to save money on my crafts and recipes. Crafting doesn’t have to cost a fortune!
