Fish Pizza – Ingredients 

• 1 package of premade pizza dough (enough for one pizza)
• Pizza sauce (about ½ cup)
• Shredded mozzarella cheese (1-1½ cups)
• 6 red cherry tomatoes 
• 6 yellow cherry tomatoes 
• 1 small slice of mozzarella cheese (for the fish’s eye)
• 1 black olive (sliced into a small round for the eye)
• 1 slice of red bell pepper (for the mouth)
• Baking sheet
• Parchment paper (optional, for easy cleanup)

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Pizza Dough

Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the pizza dough packaging. Roll out the premade pizza dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping it into a large fish shape. You can create the body with a rounded shape with a top fin, bottom fin, and tail fin. If needed, trim any excess dough to refine the shape.

Step 2: Add the Pizza Sauce

Spread a layer of pizza sauce evenly over the entire dough, leaving the edges clear for the crust. This will provide a flavorful base for your toppings!

Step 3: Add the Mozzarella Cheese

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza, making sure to cover the entire surface. 

Step 4: Create the Fish’s Scales

For the fish’s scales, use slices of red and yellow cherry tomatoes. Leave a space for the fish’s face and begin placing the tomato slices spaced out to mimic the look of scales. Alternate between red and yellow slices to give the fish some colorful flair. Stop the tomato “scales” right before the fish’s tail.

Step 5: Add the Fish’s Eye

To create the fish’s eye, take a small round slice of mozzarella cheese and place it near the top of the fish’s face. On top of that slice, add a round slice of black olive to complete the eye.

Step 6: Create the Fish’s Mouth

For the fish’s mouth, cut a slice of red bell pepper into a small curved shape and place it just below the eye to form the mouth.

Step 7: Bake the Fish Pizza

Place the pizza in the oven and bake according to the instructions on your pizza dough packaging (usually 10-15 minutes) or until the cheese is melted and golden brown and the crust is crispy. Keep an eye on the pizza as it bakes to avoid overcooking.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy!

Once the pizza is out of the oven, let it cool for a minute before slicing. Serve your fish-shaped pizza and watch everyone’s faces light up with excitement!
