Tofu Pizza Recipe
I grilled some tofu cubes and topped it over the pizza which made it even more healthier..Tofu naturally has no flavour on its own so I spiced up the tofu pieces to give it a kick as well as flavour.I used Tomato ketchup as pizza sauce but you can use pizza sauce in it. In fact I have my own recipe for pizza sauce. Please click here for recipe.
