Pizza with Mushrooms

Pizza with mushrooms is one of the most popular variants of this wonderful dish both in Italy itself and in the rest of the world. Traditionally, captive-grown mushrooms are used for the filling. And this is really a great choice, since they cook very quickly (by the way, they can be eaten raw, by the way!) And go perfectly with both tomato sauce and cheese. You can make the taste of mushrooms more expressive with the help of herbs: oregano or thyme. And our own parsley is also quite suitable! It is better to add spicy herbs to the filling in dried form, but you can decorate the ready-made pizza with mushrooms with fresh leaves.
