toppings are what ever you want to add

Set oven to 350. Bake pizza 5 to 7 minutes or until pizza is to your liking.
Can also be baked on the grill. Place crust on grill. Turn crust over and add sauce, toppings and cheese. The crust will bake fast so watch not to over bake.
(*TIP* - If you want to try these, but can't take the heat of the peppers, after prepping- soak the Japs in Sprite, or ginger ale for up to 8 hours. 8 hr. soak will take out all of the heat - but leave the flavor - less soak time = more heat. )
