I’m a pretty picky eater. Whenever anyone orders pizza, I feel like less is more. Some people like the everything pizza but I enjoy a plain cheese one usually. So this recipe is perfect because it’s totally customizable! You can stuff it with whatever you’d like! And you can make these as easily or as complicated as you wish. You can buy the dough and the sauce at a local pizza place and just buy the other stuff or you could make the sauce and dough from scratch.
Ingredients
- 1lb pizza dough

Grab a handful of dough for each person
-
Roll each piece into a circle
-
Place the filling on half of each circle (pizza sauce, pepperoni, etc)
-
Make sure the edges are clear so it seals
