Simple Fresh Pizza Sauce

This is all from memory that I mixed up a few weeks ago for homemade pizza so the measurements aren't exact. It makes a really fresh pizza and it was really good but I would also add melted butter to the top of your uncooked crust before adding the sauce. Melted butter makes everything better. This is easily adaptable to your tastes.

4-6 (or more depending on size and how many pizzas) fresh, chopped tomatoes
4 cloves garlic, chopped *we love garlic but you can adjust for your tastes
3-4 T olive oil
Garlic salt
Italian season or basil, oregano and rosemary

In small/med saucepan over M heat pour in olive oil. Drop in garlic and let it simmer for a few seconds then drop in tomatoes with all their juices from chopping. Season with spices. Let this simmer for 15-20 minutes, mixing and mashing tomatoes as they get softer from cooking. Add more olive oil as needed and seasonings to taste. You want this not too watery but it will be thinner than traditional pizza sauce.

Then I take my crust and spread about 2 T melted butter and sprinkle some garlic salt before topping with maybe 1/4 c? of this sauce. Enough to cover crust lightly. I usually make a fresh tasting, white pizza with this sauce only using Mozzarella.
