Italian Pizza is the all time favorite of many including me. With pre made pizza sauce and pizza base, it can be made very quickly at home. Also the pizza sauce can be made easily at home and recipe link for the same is provided in the notes. The homemade pizza sauce tastes very much better than the store bought. To make the Italian pizza healthier, you can use less amount of cheese and use whole wheat pizza base instead of the normal one. Do not worry if you don’t have an oven as pizza can also be made on a stove top. Enjoy Italian pizza with your family and friends!
