pizza: I was at the grocery store and saw that they had a sell on bags of pizza sauce. Would this work for my chicken parm that I am making? Would there be any reason that I couldn't use pizza sauce for chicken? I was going to just use Prego, but if the pizza sauce is cheaper and tastes like regular spaghetti sauce I'll go with that.|||The basic ingredients are the same. In fact, any tomato sauce recipe can be used as a spaghetti or pasta sauce or as a pizza sauce. However, pizza sauce should have a thicker consistency than most spaghetti sauces. Watery sauces will soak the crust and leave you with a soggy pizza. If leftover or store bought spaghetti sauce is going to be used on pizza, as is with no 'doctoring', reduce the sauce by simmering in a sauce pan until it has the consistency of a thick pancake batter.|||Pizza sauce is generally a bit thinner in my experience so that it spreads on the pizza nicely. Spaghetti sauce is much thicker, even chunky, to make it easier to eat on the pasta with a fork. The flavors could be very similar, depending on the recipes, but one pizza sauce might taste very different from another pizza sauce, same for the pasta sauces. So, as long as you like the sauce, then it's all good.|||In most traditional recipes a pizza sauce will have oregano while a pasta sauce has basil. They are simular enough it should work.|||there is no difference. basically, its just tomato sauce with spices. i substitute one for the other all the time.|||I think pizza sauce is thicker and has more flavor. sounds delish!
