Author: Sarah | Curious Cuisiniere

Ingredients

  • ¼ c tomato paste
  • ¼ c + 2 Tbsp water
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl until combined.
  • Let the sauce stand for at least 5 minutes before using to top a pizza.

Notes

This sauce does have a bit of a kick. Omit the cayenne if you like things a bit on the milder side.
