As for the results of the sensory evaluation, the results indicated that all the samples produced were acceptable to the arbitrators and to a high degree for the properties of color, taste, smell, textures and Overall acceptability. The results show the approximation of the physical properties of both the control sample and the produced sample where the diameter reached 5.39 cm for the control while it reached 5.21 for the produced sample while the weight in the sample produced was less than the control sample. The estimation of storage properties of sunflower oil used in the production of moringa pizza also showed a decrease in the oxidation and peroxide values ​​of the sample produced from the control sample.
