No-Oven Yummy Veg....Pan Pizza

Pizza, originated from Italy and it is called as an Italian dish. However Pizza is eaten all over the world. Pizza is one of the main street foods of Europe and America. The main ingredients of Pizza are flour, tomato sauce, Cheese and some topping such as different types of veggies, chicken, meat, sausage and chicken/meat mince, etc. Due to the unique and awesome flavor of cheese with toppings, it makes children so crazy about it that they love Pizza.
