Margherita Pizza has always been one of my favorite kinds of pizza. It just takes a few simple ingredients and you get insanely delicious results! You just can’t go wrong with that tomato, basil and fresh mozzarella combo.
Nothing but a simple pizza crust, some San Marzano tomatoes, evoo, garlic, fresh mozza and lots of fresh basil. Simple ingredients, yet a seriously flavorful end result!
Most recipes just use the tomatoes straight from the can, but I like to simmer them and reduce some of that excess liquid for a more concentrated flavor — and so there’s no soggy crust.

I also add extra virgin olive oil and garlic to the sauce, which isn’t so common either. Why wouldn’t we add it though? More flavor!
Here, I cheated and used a store-bought pizza dough to save time. But not the kind that’s in a package with lots of random ingredients, just the kind the bakery or deli makes (it should consist of flour, water, yeast, olive oil, salt and sometimes sugar but nothing else).
The only drawback to this vegetarian pizza recipe is that you can only bake one pizza at a time unless you have two ovens and two pizza stones. But margherita pizza only takes about 5 minutes to bake, so no problemo.

If you’ve never tried margherita pizza before, you’re missing out! Supposedly, margherita pizza was invented in the 1800s in Naples as a way to showcase the colors of the Italian flag (red, white, and green).
Traditionally, margherita pizza has a thin and crispy crust and is topped only with tomato sauce, mozzarella, and fresh basil. It’s a simple, yet flavorful vegetarian pizza!
Yes, but the canned San Marzano tomatoes are what make this easy margherita pizza so special, in my opinion. But if you only have tomato sauce on hand, that should work too.

No, fresh mozzarella is a key ingredient to this margherita pizza. If you use another type of cheese, you’ll be making cheese pizza (which would still taste delicious, it just wouldn’t be a traditional margherita pizza).
This homemade pizza is best enjoyed right away, as the crust loses its crispness over time. However, if you have leftovers simply store them in an airtight container in the fridge.
To reheat this vegetarian pizza, warm it in the oven for 10 minutes on a lower heat (325 or 350), or until the cheese starts to bubble. Note that the fresh basil will wilt in the oven, so you may need to add more.
