This is a very good pizza sauce that has a bit of zing – not too hot just a bit of zing. You can’t even tell there isn’t parm cheese in the sauce – the nutritional yeast is really a great sub. We buy ours at Whole Foods and the tin lasts forever! This amount covered 2 medium sized pizza’s for us – amount varies depending on how saucy you like your pie. This is so easy and quick to make too. Let me know how you like it!
