4 Tips for making perfect pizza crust:
How can I customize this pizza?
I love this classic combination of artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, red onions, and kalamata olives, but this pizza is SO versatile and there are so many other delicious topping options. Here are a few of my favorite ideas:
Use a simple red sauce instead of the olive oil and dried herbs Spread a layer of classic or roasted red pepper humus on top of the crust Add fresh or roasted red bell peppers Sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes for a hint of heat Throw on some shredded or diced chicken for an added boost of protein Top it off with some fresh spinach or arugula, toasted pine nuts, or roasted chickpeas for some crunch
You guys really, the possibilities are endless for this Mediterranean Veggie Pizza.
