Zucchini and potato-based pizza recipe

Is there anything better than pizza? With pineapples, mushrooms, or chicken – whatever your heart desires. The main thing is that the dough is thin and the toppings are plentiful. The only caveat is not to get carried away because no one wants extra folds on the stomach.

And for those who follow a healthy diet and keep fit, there is a healthier alternative. You can make pizza by replacing the dough with a vegetable base.

The FoodOboz editorial team will share options for a vegetable pizza base based on expert advice.
