Ingredients
Pickles, cheese, and ranch dressing are a tasty combination. Add in a pizza crust, and this meal brings about resemblances of a fried pickle. The warm melted cheese, pickles, and crust also remind Amy of a warm pita melt. If you are a pickle fan, you should definitely try this pizza. The hints of garlic and dill smell wonderful while cooking, and will make your stomach grumble in anticipation of the taste. The pre-made crust and small amount of ingredients helps to make this a quick prep and cook time recipe. It is also a kid-friendly recipe. Kids may enjoy adding the cheese or pickles on top of the pizza. Optionally add additional ranch or your favorite sauce on the side for dipping. We tried a stone ground mustard on the side, which we enjoyed! An additional suggested option is to try it with bacon on top.
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
Place the pickle chips on a plate and pat off the excess moisture from the pickle chips with a paper towel while the oven is preheating.
Place the unbaked pizza crust on a baking sheet.
- We used one Boboli Original Pizza Crust.
Add a layer of the ranch dressing to taste on the unbaked pizza crust.
- We used a layer of Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing (Gluten Free) from the 16 fl oz bottle.
Spread the ranch dressing to cover the crust and add the mozzarella cheese on top of the ranch dressing.
- We used about 1 1/2 cups of Kraft Natural Shredded Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (No rbST Hormone) from the 24 wt oz package.
Sprinkle the dill weed on top of the cheese to taste.
- We used McCormick Gourmet Organic Dill Weed (USDA Organic. Non GMO Project Verified) from the 0.5 wt oz bottle.
Add the dill pickle chips and then about 2 tsp of the chopped garlic. Top with a sprinkle of pepper or ground peppercorns.
- We used 20 Vlasic Fresh Packed Ovals Dill Chips (No Yellow Number 5. No Artificial Dyes. No Artificial Flavors) from the 16 fl oz jar, and Giant’s brand of Chopped Garlic in Water from the 8 wt oz container.
- We also used McCormick Peppercorn Medley Grinder (Non GMO), which contains a mixture of black peppercorns, coriander, pink peppercorns, white peppercorns, allspice, and green peppercorns.
Place in the oven to bake. The pizza crust package says to bake for 8 to 10 minutes. We baked ours for 8 minutes.
