So a plain tomato sauce shouldn't give you many points?
Buy Pomi, Cento, or Red Gold canned whole tomatoes. Use a bare minimum of EVOO to cook onions & garlic, then smush up the tomatoes and go hog-wild with the fresh herbs. Thyme, basil, mint, parsley: all add flavor without contributing significant calories.

ETA: I said earlier that if you're using fresh herbs to wait until the end, but that's actually only true for basil. I don't know why I worded it that way. Only fresh basil needs to wait until the end.

basically zero for a homemade one with the recipes people have suggested. The store bought ones add sugar and stuff that sneaks up on you.

yup. fortunately I love vinegar so I can make a really nice salad with an infused balsamic vinegar for zero points.
