8 Easy Pizza Recipes

Pizza is essentially it’s own food group around here. Since we make it on the regular, I’m always looking for ways to jazz up the health and nutrient factors of my favorite pies, as well as make them speedier in the process!

Fluffynaan, flatbreads, french bread, and pitas make an amazingly quick and super delicious alternative to old-school pizza crust — they’re also an amazing way to appease a hungry family since everyone can customize their own personal pie this way. I call that a win!

Let’s dive into my top 8 easy pizza recipes!

1.Three Cheese Pesto Spinach Flatbread Pizza

What happens when you top a garlicky flatbread with homemade creamed spinach, three kinds of cheeses, and pesto, glorious pesto?

Lunch. A really, really, ridiculously yummy who-needs-a-pizzaria lunch. Or dinner. Or a tasty snack for two if you have an particularly peckish significant other hovering over your shoulder. You know what? You could make this for breakfast and nobody would judge you. It’s just too good not to.

2.Broccoli Cheddar Four Cheese Pizza Flatbreads

You’ll flip over this quick, easy, and delicious broccoli pizzas! Use your favorite crust recipe or grab some fluffy naan flatbread for the speediest of shortcuts.

I think I just fell even more hopelessly in love with broccoli!

3.BBQ Hawaiian Pizza Flatbreads

The easiest way to make pizza for 1-2 people? Flatbreads! These smoky sweet flatbread pizzas are quick, easy, and totally delicious!

Let’s skip delivery, ditch the frozen pie, and grab some fluffy flatbread… it’s pizza time!

4.Beetza!!! Garlicky Flatbread Pizza with Beets, Balsamic, and Feta

That’s right: Beetza! Give this super easy roasted veggie flatbread a try and prepare to fall in love with beets!

The sweetness from the tomatoes and balsamic glaze, the creaminess from the salty feta and the peppery bite of baby arugula will make you forget your’re scarfing a pizza covered in beets. Factor in the fragrant herbed garlic and the underlying sweetness of those earthy beets and well… yum! There. I said it. YUM! So stick that on your fork and eat it!

Another tasty shortcut? Veggies! I love pizza-fying my vegetables by usingbell peppersorzucchinias a healthy crust alternative. It’s freakishly fast and oh so tasty!
