❓ FAQs

Can I use pita bread instead of naan?
Yes! Pita makes a great thinner alternative for a crispier base.

Is tzatziki sauce served warm?
It’s typically cold or room temp, but it holds up great in the oven too!

Can I make this vegetarian?
Absolutely — just skip the chicken or replace with grilled mushrooms or chickpeas.

Can I prepare this ahead of time?
Yes. Assemble the pizzas (except the cucumber) and refrigerate. Bake when ready, and add fresh cucumber after baking for crunch.
