Salad bar toppings
Buy toppings from a salad bar to save time and money on homemade pizza.
“Most salad bars have spinach, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, olives, etc. I've also seen ham, chicken and bacon bits at salad bars... It's definitely more expensive to buy each individual item (a bag of spinach, a jar of olives, a whole pepper, etc.), not to mention you have to cut them up yourself.”
One large pizza
One 18 inch pizza has more pizza than two 12 inch pizzas.
“Here's a useful counterintuitive fact: one 18 inch pizza has more 'pizza' than two 12 inch pizzas”
Pizza box plates

Rip the top of the pizza box to make four pizza-sized plates.
“Step 1: Tear off the top Step 2: Fold it into fourths and separate them Step 3: EAT PIZZA!”
Reheat on stove
Reheat cold pizza on stove for crisp crust and melty cheese.
“Legendary Lesson #5: reheating pizza in a pan, covered on low heat = crisp crust and melty cheese”
Microwave water trick
Put a glass of water in microwave with pizza to stop crust from getting chewy.
Waffle iron pizza

Use waffle iron to transform two pizza slices into a tasty grilled cheese-style pizza.
“Step 1: Put the slices together so the cheese-sides are facing each other Step 2: Place them in the waffle iron and grill until melted Step 3: Taste and go to pizza heaven!”
Leftover pizza croutons
Cut leftover pizza into crouton-size pieces and bake at 375f for eight minutes.
“It's surprisingly easy to do: just cut the leftover pizza into crouton-size pieces, toss them with some olive oil, then put them in the oven to bake at 375℉ for eight minutes”
The short version
Homemade pizza tips include using salad bars for toppings, one large pizza over two small ones, and reheating methods for crisp crust.
