In Italy, a cheese and tomato pizza is commonly known as "Margherita." This classic pizza features a simple topping of tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella cheese, and basil, representing the colors of the Italian flag. It is named after Queen Margherita of Savoy, who popularized the dish in the late 19th century.
It is fresh/chopped tomato mozzarella cheese, and basil.

One delicious basil pizza recipe I recommend is a Margherita pizza. Start with a pre-made pizza crust, spread tomato sauce on top, sprinkle with fresh mozzarella cheese, and top with fresh basil leaves. Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Enjoy the classic flavors of this simple and tasty pizza!
Pizza is the most popular Italian food in the US. The pizza we buy, although delicious, is not at all like its Italian cousin. Both have crust, cheese, and tomato on them, but in Italy these ingredients are not broken down as much. You will see slices of tomato and cheese instead of cooked tomatoes or shredded cheese. The taste, too, is different; Italian pizza tastes much fresher.
The original pizza (so the story goes) was the Pizza Margherita (named for, and supposedly created for, Margherita Maria Teresa Giovanna of Savoy--check Wikipedia if you want more info). It is red (tomato), white (real mozzarella cheese), and green (basil)--the colors of the Italian flag (aka il tricolore). Basically a caprese salad baked on top of a focaccia loaf, it became an instant classic and inspired a whole genre of global fast food. Amongst other things. Viva Napoli.
