pizza Margherita
Queen's namesake pie
Pizza Margherita is a classic Neapolitan pizza topped with tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, and basil—the colors of the Italian flag.
It represents the simplest and most traditional form of pizza, against which fancier variations are often measured: Sometimes I just want a good Margherita, nothing else.
