How to Satisfy Your Pizza Craving for Every Meal

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Texas chapter.

It’s clear that Americans love pizza — 93% of people eat pizza at least once a month and 1 out of 8 people eat it on any given day. It’s always the best option because it’s cheesy, cheap and never fails to make you happy. It’s easy to order in Domino’s or stop by your local pizzeria, but homemade pizza is so much better. Here’s how you can switch it up and eat your favorite food at home for breakfast, lunch, dinner and even dessert.

Breakfast

1. Blackberry Ricotta Pizza with Basil
