Notes

Nutritional information is approximate and provided for each slice. The data does not include the optional toppings.
The thinner you roll the crust, the crispier it will be. It also cooks faster than a thicker crust. Keep it thicker if you like the softness inside.
Experiment with different sauces and add ons. A garlic white sauce is a nice change from traditional red sauce. You can even try difference cheese like gorgonzola or blue cheese.
Use different herbs and spices in the dough to vary the flavor.
