Nutritional values

Here, instead of yeast dough, cooked corn semolina is put on the tray - and provides a thick portion of potassium, magnesium, iron and silicic acid. The silicic acid does good for hair and skin and not least strengthens the connective tissue, while iron supports blood formation.

With its beautifying qualities, this pizza is just perfect for a "girls' evening", but men are sure to like it too. Those who love hot things can have more chili.
