4th of July is not only a holiday to celebrate this great country, but it's an excuse to get creative with some good eats made to share with your family and friends, too! This Patriotic Pizza tastes amazing and will be the life of your festivities.
We used black olives for the "stars" part of the flag, and pepperoni for the "stripes," but you can experiment with your favorite toppings for a different kind of look. Use refrigerated pizza dough to make things easy, and you'll have a hot and ready pizza pie to get your party started in no time!
