Between the pandemic and still-cold temperature forecasts, we are parking ourselves firmly in the house and have absolutely no plans nor desire to go out. Enter pizza night: the perfect activity to make for a fun evening at home, whether it’s family night or date night. And if you don’t already know how to make a Margherita pizza, now’s your chance to learn!
If you want to make this with your kids for a family night, I recommend making 2-3 pizzas. One pizza is just the right amount for a cozy dinner for two. You can always switch up the toppings, but I went with a classic Margherita here. If you want to add something extra to it, I recommend cooking up some ground Italian sausage–it’s not traditional but it’s so good with the tomato, mozzarella, and fresh basil.
However you do it, I hope you have a fun, delicious evening with loved ones. Keep scrolling for the full Margherita pizza recipe ahead!
