There was a trend on another site where everyone made pizza so I thought I’d give it a whirl since I’d never made pizza at home that wasn’t a take and bake.

The Publix dough worked well… I olive oiled the pans and then wiped out the extreme excess making sure to get the sides as well. I then built the pies and while the oven was warming I put the pans on the stove top to prewarm the bottom and the dough.

The dough was a smidge puffy but overall pretty good

..

The local 4 year old wouldn’t eat it though as the pepperoni was under the cheese and not on top. Everyone is a critic… ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

    And they were right.

    First: pizza sauce

    Then: Cheese

    Last the toppings (hence the name)

    And if you are a true cheese lover: Cheese can be a topping too.

    Also: Give it a try and make your own pizza sauce and dough. You won’t regret it.

      haha ill let her know she was right.

      honestly idk why i make pizzas like that… ive always just done dough -> sauce -> toppings -> cheese.

      if it means anything to you… ages ago when i made tortilla pizzas the first time with my wife… she gave me a strange look and second guessed our relationship over it.

          Yeah they are pretty good for dinner in a pinch … Especially if you’re itching for a pizza but don’t want to wait for delivery.

          Ingredients: flour tortilla, pizza sauce, toppings, cheese.

          We typically only do cheese or pepperoni pizzas like this. As my wife is a child and doesn’t eat anything beyond pepperoni. So I can’t speak to how other toppings work with this method

          So how I make ours is: Flour tortilla tossed on a griddle on the stove top. Heat set to medium. Set your oven to broil

          While the griddle and tortilla are warming, build your pizza.

          Once done toss griddle / pizza into oven to melt / warm / toast everything.

          Yank it out when you’re satisfied and plate.

          I literally bought two lodge 10 inch griddles so I could make pizzas quicker for the family.

          Takes about 7 minutes to fully make one.
