Notes
Don’t overload the pizza with too many toppings to avoid a soggy crust., Use good-quality pickles for the best flavor., Slice the pickles thinly to ensure even cooking., Consider pre-baking the crust for a crispier texture., Experiment with different types of cheese, pickles, or additional toppings like bacon, pepperoni, onions, peppers, mushrooms, or olives., Try different sauces such as pesto, ranch dressing, or barbecue sauce., For a vegetarian option, omit the meat and add extra vegetables., Use a gluten-free pizza crust for a gluten-free version.
