Pizza Sauce - Marinara (it's even better made the day before)

1 large sweet onion, chopped fine

1 medium sweet bell pepper, chopped fine

3 cloves garlic, pressed

8-10 medium fresh basil leaves, chopped

2 Tbs olive oil

1 large (5 oz) can tomato paste

2 large (12 oz) cans tomato sauce

1 jar Allessi Sicilian Caponata Appetizer

Brown the onion, pepper, garlic, and basil in the olive oil - this will take about 30 mins, so be patient! Don't burn the garlic! Then add the tomato paste, sauce and the caponata. Mix well.

Use a stick blender to to make the sauce into a smooth, thick paste (or put it in batches into your food processer - but be careful! It's HOT!)

Pour the sauce into Ball jars or pouring cups, and store in the fridge until ready to use - up to a week. Warm the sauce before putting it on the pizza.

Keep toppings light and easy on grilled pizza. Add the sauce first, and only use a little bit. Then the cheese. Try to limit topping choices to two or three so the fresh ingredients really shine!
