Recipes Tips

If you’re looking to make this recipe even healthier, you can swap out the turkey sausage for chicken or veggie sausage. You can also add more veggies, such as spinach or zucchini, for extra nutrients. And if you’re short on time, you can use store-bought tomato sauce instead of making your own.

To make sure the crust is crispy and not soggy, you can pre-bake it for a few minutes before adding the toppings. And if you’re having trouble spreading the tomato sauce, you can thin it out with a little water or chicken broth.

Finally, don’t be afraid to get creative with your toppings! This recipe is very customizable, so feel free to add your favorite ingredients and make it your own. Enjoy!
