I posted a similar recipe that makes a big batch of sauce called Freezer Spaghetti or Pizza Sauce. If you want a smaller batch or want to do it in the crock pot, Crock Pot Spaghetti or Pizza Sauce is for you.

I use this recipe for spaghetti sauce or pizza sauce. It is great for either!

It is easy to dump in the crock pot to come home to several hours later. Oh, I just love recipes like that!

What to use Crock Pot Spaghetti or Pizza Sauce on:

Pour it over traditional noodles or a low carb and gluten free option of zoodles or even french cut string beans.

Other low carb options I have tried are Palmini Linguine (found in Walmart in the gluten free section) and Shirataki Spaghetti (found in Walmart in the fresh vegetable section). Both were good. I liked the Palmini better. Both needed a good rinse and good boil to make them softer. The shirataki did tend to be rubbery (in my opinion; many like them). I will buy the Palmini again and keep them on hand. Here the sauce is pictured over Palmini and Palmini is also showin in the video.

Quinoa is a nutritious, gluten free (but not low carb) option.

We have done all of those at our house.

It freezes perfectly and is so nice to pull out for a quick, easy, delicious family meal later. Pop half cup or one cup servings–or whatever amount needed–into a container to easily add to recipes below.

We also use this as a pizza sauce for Low Carb Crustless Pizza or spaghetti sauce for Low Carb Parmesan Meatballs or Low Carb Stuffed Peppers.

A Shortcut:

This is an optional step but if you plan to make this often, it saves time when you make it again. As I measure out the seasonings for my pot, I also add the same to a small container. The next time I already have over half of the ingredients measured and ready to dump in the pot!

Note: I revised this recipe on 5/4/19 and changed the petite diced tomatoes to crushed tomatoes. I have used them the last few times and it makes a thicker sauce that way; just better.
