Peri's Tip!

The key to great Hawaiian pizza is making sure your pineapple is well-drained. Too much moisture will make your pizza soggy. You can also try grilling the pineapple first for extra flavor!

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup diced ham or Canadian bacon

  • Italian seasoning to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional)
