My Maui Zaui Polynesian Pizza Sauce recipe is a work in progress, but I’m glad to share my progress with you! This recipe is much closer than my last go-round.

I didn’t think that paprika generally required a large amount of pesticide to grow so I thought I may be safe with the non-organic purchase in this instance. But, I compared the two labels just in case there … Continue reading
