My Favourite Food / Моя любимая еда

I really love food! I like many different dishes, but my favourite food is pizza. I think pizza is perfect because you can eat it hot or cold, alone or with friends. I usually order pizza with cheese, tomatoes, and mushrooms, and sometimes with chicken. On weekends, I sometimes make homemade pizza with my family. It is fun to cook together. We buy the dough, cut the vegetables, and choose our favourite toppings. My second favourite food is pasta. When I am tired, I cook simple pasta with tomato sauce and herbs. I also enjoy salads, fruit, and dark chocolate. I do not like food that is too spicy. In my country, people like soup, potatoes, and bread. I am always happy to try food from other countries. Eating together helps us feel happy and have nice conversations.
