Description
Homemade Pizza Night is a game-changer for family dinners or casual get-togethers. Everyone gets their own personal pizza, so there are no topping battles—just creativity, laughter, and delicious results.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 batch pizza dough (store-bought or homemade, divided into personal portions)
- Pizza sauce (marinara, pesto, or garlic oil)
- Shredded mozzarella (or a mix of cheeses)
- Olive oil for brushing crusts
- Topping Ideas:
- Pepperoni, sausage, cooked bacon
- Bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach
- Olives, jalapeños, pineapple, tomatoes
- Fresh basil, arugula, crushed red pepper
- Parmesan, ricotta, or feta for extra flair
Instructions
- Prep the Dough
- Divide dough into 4–6 small balls. Roll or stretch each into a personal-sized round. Let everyone shape their own.
- Set Up the Toppings Bar
- Lay out sauces, cheeses, and all toppings in bowls for easy access.
- Assemble Pizzas
- Let everyone build their pizza, starting with sauce and cheese, then layering toppings as they like.
- Bake

- Serve Hot
- Slice and enjoy—no one’s stealing your slice when it’s your own creation.
