Tailgate Mango Pizza
Ingredients
1 lb prepared pizza dough
½ cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup cooked spicy Italian sausage or pepperoni slices
1 large ripe mango, diced (plus ½ additional mango for topping after baking)
¼ cup fresh basil leaves
½ cup fresh arugula
2 tbsp hot honey
1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 475°F. Lightly grease a pizza pan or sprinkle a baking sheet with cornmeal.
- Peel and dice the mango into small bite-sized pieces. Reserve about half of the diced mango for topping after the pizza is baked.
- Stretch the pizza dough into a 12–14-inch circle and place it on the prepared pan.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the sauce.
- Layer the spicy Italian sausage or pepperoni over the cheese, then scatter half of the diced mango across the pizza.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately top with the reserved fresh mango, basil leaves, and fresh arugula.
- Finish with a generous drizzle of hot honey.
- Slice and serve warm for the ultimate sweet-and-savory tailgate snack.
