Caesar Salad Kit Pizzas

Words by

We can’t recommend these quick, individual Caesar Salad Pizzas enough—they’re a perfect way to combine your love for the two meals into one. Plus, it’s made with a Greek yogurt pizza dough that comes together in minutes.

We partnered with Grace Elkus to make this dream a reality. Click here to see the recipe in action!

You’ll Need:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 4 ounces low-moisture whole-milk mozzarella cheese, grated (1 cup)
  • 1 Caesar salad kit, such as @gothamgreens
  • 1 lemon
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Shaved Parmesan, for serving (optional)
  • Heat oven to 450°F with racks in upper and lower thirds


How to Make It:

Make the dough: Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add yogurt and stir with a fork until crumbly.

Transfer to a work surface and knead with your hands, adding more flour as needed, until it forms a smooth ball (dough should be slightly tacky but not sticky). Cover loosely with plastic wrap; set aside while you make the oil and grate the mozzarella.

Make the pizza oil: Whisk oil, garlic powder, oregano, red pepper flakes, and a pinch each s&p in a small bowl.

Divide the dough into 4 pieces and use a floured rolling pin to roll into 6-inch rounds. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush oil onto dough, then top with mozzarella.

Bake on the lower rack until the crusts are golden and the cheese is bubbly and browned in spots, 11 to 13 minutes.

Meanwhile, chop the greens in the salad kit and mix with the dressing and Parmesan. Finely grate a little bit of lemon zest onto each pizza, then top with the salad and the herb crouton crumble. Finish with freshly ground black pepper and big shavings of Parmesan cheese.
