Ingredients
Pizza Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pizza crust store-bought or homemade
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce use your favorite kind
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 8 pieces black olives sliced
- 1 piece bell pepper cut into strips
- 2-4 slices pepperoni for additional 'spider' legs
- Fresh basil or spinach optional, for garnish
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Make sure to do this before you get too deep into the process.
- Roll out your pizza crust on a floured surface if you’re using homemade dough. If you’ve opted for store-bought, just lay it in your pizza pan.
- Spread the pizza sauce generously over your crust, right up to the edges.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese all over the sauce.
- Take a few slices of black olives and place them strategically on the pizza for the spider's body and legs.
- Add your bell pepper strips for extra legs.
Cooking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Once done, take it out and let it cool for a minute or two.
- Garnish with fresh basil or spinach leaves if desired.
Notes
Don’t worry if your spider doesn’t look exactly like a Halloween creature; it’s all about fun! Feel free to get creative with toppings! Kids love designing their own spiders.
