Cooking Tips

  • You can use store-bought pizza crusts or make your own from scratch.
  • Feel free to add additional toppings such as caramelized onions or arugula for extra flavor.
  • If you prefer a milder blue cheese flavor, you can substitute it with goat cheese or feta.

Storage and Serving

  • If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, place the slices in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.
