🛒 What You Need For This Recipe
🔖 Ingredients & Substitutions
- Pizza crust: I used a 12-inch storebought crust but you can also use homemade pizza dough.
- Pickles: I used my homemade "quickles", but you can use your favorite storebought dill pickles too.
- Cheese: I recommend using mozzarella and dill havarti, but jack and parmesan cheese can work really well too.
- Sauce: I used Trader Joe's vegan dill dressing, but you can use a homemade dill dressing, ranch dressing, or just stick with a light brushing of olive oil.
- Garlic: I only used 2 cloves because the dill dressing already had garlic in it, but you can always use more!
- Turkey pepperoni: Or regular pepperoni, salami, ham, bacon, or Canadian bacon.
- Tabasco: You can also use Sriracha or your preferred hot sauce, or omit it if you don't want to add a bit of heat.
