Notes

Double up on ingredients for unexpected guests and create a simple and tasty welcome.
If you prefer slightly brown edges on feta cheese, leave the pizza in the oven for several minutes, watching carefully so that the crust is not burned. You can also crumble the cheese for a more melted consistency.
As always, for best results, I suggest organic ingredients.
