Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pre-made pizza dough (or homemade if preferred)
- 1 cup marinara sauce or pizza sauce
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Assorted vivid toppings like sliced bell peppers (red, blue, yellow), black olives, purple onions, and jalapeños
- Food coloring gels (blue, red, green, purple, yellow)
- Cooking spray or olive oil
- Optional: pepperoni, sausage, or vegetarian meat alternatives
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a greased baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Divide the shredded mozzarella cheese into small bowls. Mix each portion with a few drops of different food coloring gels to create vibrant cheese patches.
- Spread the colored cheese in irregular patches across the pizza to simulate a glitchy, pixelated effect. Use a spatula or spoon to apply them randomly for a dynamic look.
- Arrange sliced bell peppers, black olives, onions, and jalapeños in splashes and streaks across the pizza, mimicking glitch artifacts and vibrant visual noise.
- Add any additional toppings you desire, such as pepperoni or veggie options, for more texture and flavor.
- Spritz the top lightly with olive oil spray for a shiny finish and to help the toppings bake evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Notes
- Use different food coloring gels to achieve various glitch effects and vibrant colors.
- For a crispier crust, pre-bake the dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
- Feel free to customize toppings based on your favorite colors and textures.
