Pizza Margherita with roasted tomato pizza sauce (Pizza Margarita)




After Easter and all  celebrations of  last time I wanted to do something  savory type.

I made this pizza and was really delicious. Some times at night I make pizza for dinner but I dont post. So here is my last pizza I made.
The dough is a recipe from Weight watchers(so good) and a classic: Pizza Margarita.

  1. Gloria, Pizza Margarita is a true classic dish and I like it too despite the lack of meat! My wife loves pizza like this... Your fall looks just like ours. I hope that your winters are as mild as ours are. We only had 1.5 inches of snow here this past winter. I must say that Wolfie has the guilty look that dogs get when they've done something that they know they shouldn't have! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
