  • If you don't have pizza sauce, you can use tomato sauce or even salsa.
  • Feel free to add your favorite toppings. Some popular options include pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, and bell peppers.
  • If you want a cheesier pizza, use a blend of mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
  • Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the cheese set and prevent the pizza from falling apart.
