Re: (...)
I got carried away doing something yesterday and forgot I had no marinara sauce in freezer and I wanted Margherita pizza for dinner...on a F&W newsletter I had picked up a sauce that I thot would never work, but, surprise, surprise - I made it and it was fine. Not as good as marinara, but in a pinch it's great!
Mix 1/2 tsp. dried oregano and 1 T. olive oil into a 14 1/2 oz. can of drained, diced tomatoes (San Marzano or Muir Glen, hopefully). Put thru a food mill, or use a stick blender.
That's it. Very good in an emergency.
and the pizza was so tasty.

I have wondered if some REALLY good tomatoes with some spaghetti seasoning, wouldn't work before. Guess so!

Jean, my no cook pizza sauce is very similer--I use San Marzano, minced garlic, and because I have it, chopped fresh oregano and basil. It is wonderful!! Leftovers ?--heat it up, add some cooked hot Italian sausage and serve over pasta.

Yes we do and it looks good. Jane is making two batches of the sourdough for this party, and three batches of our regular. We are doing a family reunion 8/8 and we will try the rye flour then!!
