Amazon SaverTraditional Pizza Sauce, 15 Oz (Previously Happy Belly, Packaging May Vary)

Excellent product , great buy, tastes fresh repeat buyer

The apparent reformulation has left this product a little too watery to make pizza with, in my opinion. However, I decided to try it in a batch of chili I made recently, and it came out perfectly! And for the price, it's more than worth it.If you only want to use it for pizza, you could boil it down to thicken it. I think you could also add a little bit of flower while boiling. This process is quick because you only need like 1/4 of the can for a 12 inch pizza--so boiling just 1/4 of the can will only take a couple of minutes.Then you can use the other 3/4 of the can for chili--just fry celery, onions, peppers and your protein (in my case, TVP), then add this pizza sauce can to the pot (I poured in about 3/4 of the can and used the rest for pizza). After cooking a bit, I poured in some water, seasonings, and beans. Cooking time was only 30-45 minutes, and so easy with this pizza sauce.

I was surprised by the flavor. I tastes fresh, like something you'd make at home. It is lighter on spice than the grocery store variety, which I prefer. It is a little too chunky for my taste but it's not a deal breaker. I quick trip through the blender solved that problem. My only complaint is that it is too sweet but that is my feeling about most commercial sauces. I would buy this sauce again, especially at this price.

Had a recipe for a Pizza Casserole that looked interesting. Used this Pizza Sauce plus a lot more ingredients to make this delicious creation. This sauce has a very good taste and consistency, and was easy to use right out of the can. Will consider getting a few more cans to use for future Pizzas.

Update 2. Amazon, it is time to empty your stock of this Happy Belly garbage. I gave it a few more months, took the chance and still got ANOTHER CAN of the Sept 2025 Happy Belly bad batch. Evidently people have stopped ordering in the area supplies by this warehouse because there is no excuse for this to still be on the shelves. I am finally done. You have been told over and over this batch it bad, but still refuse to remove it from rotation. My local store brand is a bit more expensive, but at least I can see what I am getting in the jar.Update. After seeing they changed the packaging and reading the old recipe was back I tried again. I received the old Happy Belly can, the same Sept 2025 date and the same runny tomato sauce, this is not Pizza Sauce and I will not try again. Fool me 3 times and I am done.They say there is no bad pizza, they are wrong. I bought 2 cans on Apr 1st. And either they were mislabeled or one of the worse April Fool jokes ever. Both can were more crushed tomato than Pizza Sauce. Since I had no other pizza sauce in the house I made my pizza with it. It was not good, flat with no flavor and watery. I will buy 1 can again to see I it has been fixed. I see others got the same mix up around the same time and have gotten the good stuff again since.

I was planning on leaving a full 5 stars because my first 2 purchases of this pizza sauce were wonderful and delicious!!! The texture and flavor were the best pizza sauce we have ever bought.But this newest order IS N0T anywhere near the same delicious sauce it was. I didn't even use it. I was so unhappy, but thankful I still had some of my previous orders still.This new batch is watery, chunky and you can't smell or taste the spices. It just smells like tomato sauce, not pizza sauce. I don't know if this change is purposeful but I sure hope you change it back. I was recommending it to my friends because of how wonderful it was and how affordable with the added benefit of its just the basic ingredients not extra junk that's in other sauces.

I have a large family that loves to cook!😁 Someone is always on the kitchen and our favorite is homemade pizza! This sauce is so good that one of my son's refuses to eat our pizza if it doesn't have this sauce. And he's a picky eater. The other children? They will eat it without it, but let me know how much they prefer this sauce.It must have secret ingredients. The quality taste of tomatoes & seasoning spices is amazing. The can is perfect size for our needs when we make multiple pizzas. No preparation is required. Easy to use, just open and pour!💞

It's a sweeter sauce akin to papa johns that's incredibly smooth and lump free. Leftover sauce stays good in the fridge with just the can lid covering it for about four days. I haven't found a better choice, even homemade, to copycat Papa Johns.
