- Total Time: 12 minutes

Ingredients
Scale
- 2 Tbsp oil
- 2 Tbsp flour
- 1 cup crushed tomatoes or no salt added tomato sauce (I use Pomi tomato sauce)
- 1 cup broth (vegetable or chicken)
- 3–4 Tbsp chili powder
- 1/2 – 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 2 tsp brown sugar
Instructions

- Stir in flour and mix until combined.
- Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer for about 10 min.
- Taste and adjust spices as needed!
Notes
Look for tomatoes where the only ingredient is “tomatoes”. Tomato sauce will be a little thinner, crushed tomatoes will be a little thicker. [br][br]Start with less spice (chili powder and cayenne), then taste and adjust to your liking. You can also add more sugar for a sweeter sauce.
