The Best Shrimp Pizza
Comments: If desired, serve this pizza along with a Mexican salad made of mixed lettuce leaves, chopped tomatoes and freshly chopped cilantro.
It is possible to use a pizza sauce instead of salsa, to add seeded chopped Jalapeno pepper or chiles to get a spicier pizza; you can also add drained canned corn kernels and Black Turtle beans for more color and flavors.
Servings: 4 to 6
