There’s nothing more fun than making your own homemade pizza. In this recipe K.O. Ketchup takes the form of a bright and flavorful pizza sauce. Because of the chipotle flavor profile of the ketchup we topped our pizza with chicken, spinach and a collection of peppers. The goat cheese helps to balance the taste and the mozzarella helps to give it that classic pizza texture that we all love so much. We admit, this is more of an adult pizza recipe but you can just as easily leave off the peppers and spinach and have something the kids can enjoy, too.
