Spicy Pepper and Cheese Crusted Pizza

My husband loves spicy food, especially a spicy pizza so I created this recipe with him in mind. I decided to bake fresh shredded romano and parmesan cheeses along with freeze dried red jalapeno peppers into the crust to give him some added zip beyond traditional pizza toppings. And to really make his day, I added some more traditional jalapenos part of his toppings. He was very pleased with the results.

While I normally don’t enjoy very spicy dishes, I found that the crust itself was more on a medium level and something I could handle eating. If you are looking for a hotter spice, simply change up the heat with the type and quantity of peppers you choose!

For added spice, consider adding other spicy peppers as toppings.
You can add more or less peppers, depending upon how spicy you’d like the flavor.
Other spices like garlic and italian seasonings like basil and oregano can also be added to the crust before baking.
