Preparing for Pizza: Making the Sauce

Every year the 5th/6th grade class makes pizza from the garden. Our first step is to make a yummy sauce from the garden tomatoes and basil we planted in the pizza garden in the spring. We chop, puree and slowly cook the sauce with a dash of salt,a little olive oil, garlic and onion to make it rich and tasty. We freeze the sauce to use in a week or two.
