Terrific Tip: If using wooden skewers, be sure to soak in water to keep from burning. This pizza works great with fresh dough or pizza dough in a can. Be sure to oil the dough to keep from sticking and cook on one side until lightly browned, and flip to cook on the other side. Top with ingredients.

Serving suggestion: Leave out the shrimp for the most perfect Margherita pizza.
