Today is National Pizza Day! Pizza is one of my favorites. Another favorite? Pickles. This mash up is true love for me!

With a garlic-y base and topped with crunchy dill pickles, this pizza is super flavorful – and super easy.

It only takes about five minutes to prep this and ten minutes to cook – which makes it a perfect, fuss-free addition to your next pizza night.

Pizza and pickles are both big hits in our house, with things like Dill Pickle Dip, Slow Cooker Pepperoni Pizza Soup, and Pepperoni Pizza Sliders in heavy rotation. This is a new favorite for sure!

I’m also linking up with some friends today to celebrate National Pizza Day and they all made something fun for our virtual pizza party!
