Pizza is one of my favorite foods, and the sweet sauce at Papa John's is my all-time favorite. My viewpoint is, if you're going to make it at home, don't make it "just as good," make it better!

Fresh homemade sauce and premium ingredients make this recipe more than worth the calories, and still trimmer than the fast food original!
