Onion, Mushroom and Tomato Pizza

Writing after a long time, visiting my home country India justifies my absence from blogosphere. 🙂
The Pizza that I made two months back and captured in my camera as it turned out to be tastier than pizza hut’s or papa john’s pizza has been waiting in my laptop’s memory to be published here.
I made my own sauce and the base i used was ready made from boboli which was great too. If you like you can make the base at home.

What more can we ask for- A tasty pizza with our own choice and amount of toppings and cheese.
