Notes
- Nutritional information is for half of the pizza.
- Prep time does not include making the dough from scratch.
- Pizza dough - the pizza dough can be made a day in advance.
- Using semola or semolina - this is great for sprinkling on the pizza trays to stop them from sticking, alternatively, you can use a light sprinkling of flour.
- Pizza tray size - we chose to make a large rectangular pizza in a tray sized 10x15 inch. You can opt to use one bigger, smaller, round pizza tray or even a pizza stone for your oven. Use more or less dough and toppings as needed to fit what you are using.
