10 Ridiculously Easy Recipes For Matzah Pizzas

Passover is just one week away! It’s my favorite Jewish holiday. I relish in planning my annual Seder meal each year, filling “bags of plagues,” and preparing for a week of matzah filled meals! You know, the flat, thin cracker that gets stacked, layered, and ground into every possible recipe for the week that chametz is banned from good Jewish homes?!!

That’s the stuff! Although my family loves to eat it plain with vegan butter or cream cheese spread across it, I try to fancy it up by adding it into recipes for pancakes, rolls, and even casseroles. Because we eat matzah all week, it can become challenging to come up with different ways to serve it.  Matzah pizzas are my ridiculously simple, but delicious way to serve up matzah in a myriad of ways. Browse the 10 matzah pizza recipes below to see what I mean.

This recipe is so interactive that it’s perfect for my family style, mixed-meals. All you have to do is line up the matzahs on cookie sheets, lay out your toppings, and the family can go to town making their own creations. Below is the basic recipe, but I love a good theme and these matzah pizzas are the perfect excuse to experiment and have fun in the kitchen. Try one of these 10 ridiculously easy matzah pizzas to jazz up your regular cheese creation.
