If you’re anything like me, you’re left with loads of Easter Ham that went uneaten this past Sunday. I always love to turn leftovers into something that’s a little more special than just a sandwich or salad and this homemade pizza is the perfect way to reinvent that leftover Easter ham. You could add mushrooms, onions, peppers, broccoli, spinach or whatever vegetables you happen to have in the house. I always prefer homemade pizza to delivery because you can control the amount of cheese and toppings and be as skimpy or generous as you prefer.

Premade crusts, available at your local grocer, are a great timesaver and are absolutely delicious when baked until crisp. If you prefer to make your own dough, roll it thinly and assemble and bake as instructed. Good Foods sells a delicious Weisenberger pizza crust mix that calls only for water and a very short rise time.

1 cup thinly sliced leeks
1 tbsp butter
1 pizza crust, premade or homemade
1 cup tomato sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1 cup diced ham
1 cup pineapple chunks
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
Black pepper, to season

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Saute the leeks in butter over medium heat until tender. Set aside.

Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet or pizza pan and spread evenly with sauce. Sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese and top with ham, pineapple, and the sautéed leeks. Sprinkle the parmesan on top and add some freshly ground black pepper.

Bake for 10-15 minutes, until crust is golden brown and crispy.
