Notes

  • What are the best toppings for pizza? Pepperoni, sausage, peppers, garlic, spinach, onions, mushrooms, bacon, ham, pineapple, olives, fresh basil, and red pepper flakes.
  • What kind of tortillas can be used? We prefer a sprouted grain tortilla but other good options are whole wheat tortillas, corn flour tortillas (great for gluten free), or low-carb tortillas.
  • According to Chef Marco, the key to a good pizza is not to overdo it on the sauce. Nothing is worse than a soggy crust, so use a light hand when ladling on the tomatoes.
  • Use fresh mozzarella cheese! It takes your pizza from homemade to Pizzeria in one fell swoop. Parmesan cheese and cheddar are also nice cheeses for pizza.
  • Substitute bbq sauce, olive oil, or pesto instead of pizza sauce.
