I made this pizza in a cast iron skillet and it was perfect. The crust was crispy and the toppings were cooked evenly. I highly recommend using a cast iron skillet if you have one.

I made this pizza with whole wheat pizza dough and it was still delicious. It's a great way to make a healthier version of this classic dish.

I love that this recipe uses store-bought pizza dough. It makes it so much easier to make. The pizza still tastes homemade, but it's much less work.
