My obsession for pizza will never suppress and hence, recreating my own version of a Margarita pizza is as close as I can get to a real pizza, during these unfortunate times. I was inspired by a flatbread pizza video and reused store bought pizza dough that has been long forgotten in my freezer. One pizza dough will roughly make two flat breads, if rolled thinly. Truthfully, this recipe is perfect for a pizza stone, if you have one. Unfortunately, with terrible space planning in my kitchen, I haven’t been able to put my pizza stone to good use, but I plan on it in the near future. What better way to spend date night at home, than with this recipe paired alongside with some delicious margaritas.
