Pizza Marinara (Vegan + Easy)

Pizza marinara alongside pizza margherita is one of the two basic pizzas from Naples. Neapolitan pizza is characterized by its simplicity. A classic marinara only is topped with tomato, garlic, oregano and a bit of olive oil. It’s hard to prepare a pizza simpler and cheaper than that. Some might ask themselves now: an Italian pizza without mozzarella? Yes, the original recipe for pizza marinara is already vegan. And no, there is no fish on a marinara, even if the translation means sailor’s pizza. But enough theory. Here’s the recipe for a very simple, cheap, quickly prepared but still very tasty version of pizza marinara.
