Recipe Notes
This recipe can be made 1 to 2 days ahead, then baked when ready to serve. Try adding your favorite pizza toppings! It's great with bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms too. And if the pepperoni seems too greasy, sweat them over the stove to remove the fat and crisp them up before adding them.
