Print Recipe

My parents have been making soup with the leftovers from thanksgiving for the longest time, I thought I would update the leftover tradition with one of my fav foods......Pizza!

With one sheet of buttery puff pastry and some cheese you're pretty much done! Everything else is already done for you because there leftovers! This is as easy as putting everything on a tart pan covering it in stringy cheese and bake it!
