Homemade Pizza Sauce

Bradley's favorite thing to do (by far) is play with his toy kitchen and pretend to cook us food. When he wakes up in the morning, the first thing he asks is to go downstairs and cook, so I find it super important to let him help me out in the kitchen wherever he can. It's fun for both of us and is a good tool to teach him healthy eating habits! 

His favorite thing to make is homemade pizza since he loves spreading on the sauce and sprinkling on the cheese. I made a big batch of this homemade sauce and keep frozen dough on hand (and let's be honest…I always have cheese on hand), so we can easily whip up some homemade pizza whenever the craving calls. It's a fun activity for the whole family. Enjoy!
