Pizza is your answer to using up leftovers. Keep the Tex-Mex theme here—whatever goes in a taco is fair game for pizza! We highly recommend crust-dunking in creamy 3 Onion Dip or spicy Chipotle Aioli.

A pizza crust can be many things—it’s basically a flatbread. Make it with fresh or frozen dough; store-bought, pre-shaped pizza shells; naan bread; matzo; pitas; tortillas; or even English muffins.
