    A savory blend of tomatoes, garlic, basil, oregano, and fennel, if
    you like, is used in this thick and hearty pizza sauce.

    3/4 cup chopped onion
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 tablespoon olive oil, margarine, or butter
    114-1/2-ounce can tomatoes, cut up
    1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
    1 bay leaf
    1 tablespoon snipped fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil crushed
    1 tablespoon snipped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano,
    crushed
    1 teaspoon fennel seed, crushed (optional)
    1/2 teaspoon sugar
    1/4 teaspoon pepper

    Cook onion and garlic in oil. Stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to
    boiling. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 35 to 40 minutes or to
    desired consistency, stirring occasionally. Discard bay leaf. Makes
    1-3/4 cups (enough for 2 pizzas or 6 servings). Hot and Spicy Pizza
    Sauce: Prepare as above except reduce the chopped onion to 1/2 cup
    and add 1/2 cup chopped green pepper with onion. Omit bay leaf; add
    1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper and 1/8 teaspoon chili powder
    with the remaining ingredients.
