Thai Pizza with zucchini and dill pickles

BONUS – recipe for – PIZZA 2 – butternut squash pizza with mozzarella and quinoa cereal 

Jump to recipe

I am a firm believer in making double portions of everything and repurposing leftovers in a variety of ways. Often it cuts down prep and cooking time by half. 

Green Thai curry paste – I have incorporated it in Thirsty Noodles. Now a 3rd time use as a pizza sauce.

This is a very unique pizza which totally surprised us. I mixed cream cheese with the Green Thai curry paste and made it the sauce layer for the pizza. Topped it with thinly sliced zucchini and dill pickles for crunch. The outcome was unbelievably good. Especially the kids loved the zucchini and pickles…. seriously I did not expect that ! This was totally an experiment which turned out to be a success. 

As a bonus – I also made another pizza with leftover Butternut squash fries plus mozzarella cheese. I came across a Quinoa cereal with no added sugar. We love to use it as a topping to add a crunch factor to dishes with soft elements. Adding this to the pizza was another thought of brilliance which worked 🙂 Just saying, sometimes going out-of-the-box is all it takes to be wowed !
