Pizza-zz your leftovers with Domino’s ultimate recipe guide

We know the best way to eat pizza is while it’s fresh and hot straight from the box, but what if you just can’t manage to finish the entire thing?

We get it, leftover pizza is rare, but it happens. So just what is the best way to enjoy your pizza the next day?

We asked the experts in the Domino’s Kitchen to provide some recipe inspiration to help you pizza-zz your leftover pizza! So, get your box of pizza, pots, and pans ready, because this is the ultimate guide to lifting your leftover pizza game.  

Let’s dig in!

Pizza Lasagne

Didn’t think it was pasta-ible to improve one of the best pasta dishes around? Well, when you replace the pasta with pizza, you can’t go wrong!

Recipe:

  • Spoon a layer of your favourite lasagne meat sauce on the base of a baking dish

  • Top with your slices of pizza (it’s easier if you cut the pizza into strips!)

  • Layer bechamel sauce on top of the pizza, and then a layer of meat sauce

  • Repeat this until you’ve used all your leftover pizza, and top with cheese

  • Bake in a moderate oven for 30 – 45 minutes until the pizza is heated through, and the cheese has melted

  • Pizza lasagne > pasta lasagne any day!

Pizza Scrambled Eggs

You can totally get away with pizza for breakfast with this simple take on scrambled eggs!

Recipe:

  • Cut your leftover pizza into small bite-sized pieces and place them topping side up in a pan over medium heat until the pizza is hot

  • Meanwhile scramble your eggs – we suggest adding some extra cheese to the eggs, because why skimp on such a ‘grate’ addition?

  • Add your topping (aka: pizza!) to the eggs and combine

  • Take a bite of this eggs-quisite breakfast

Pizza Fries

We enjoy fries in any form, but once you’ve had a pizza this version, you won’t go back!

Recipe:

  • Slice your pizza into fry-shaped pieces, and pop into your oven until the pizza is hot

  • While your pizza fries are heating, we recommend preparing a dip of your favourite marinara sauce

  • Once the pizza fries are piping hot, remove from the oven, and place on a plate

  • Dip into marinara sauce and enjoy this satis-fry-ing snack!

Grilled Cheese Pizza

Two of life’s greatest comfort foods, combined to make an oozy, cheesy grilled masterpiece!

  • In a pan, place your slice of pizza topping side up, and top with your favourite cheese

  • Top with another slice of pizza, topping side down

  • Once the bottom slice is heated through, and the cheese is starting to melt, flip the pizza sandwich

  • Once the cheese is melted to your liking, take off the heat, and enjoy this reinvention of leftover pizza – trust us, this one’s so gouda!

Pizza Crusts and Soup

Forget buttered toast, save your pizza crusts to dip into your favourite soup! Don’t believe us? Just try it because it’s soup-er delicious!

  • Reheat your pizza crusts in the oven

  • Heat your favourite soup (homemade or store-bought – no judgement here!)

  • Once you taste pizza crusts dipped into soup, we guarantee you’ll be saying ‘good soup’

There you have it, five ways to turn leftover pizza into a whole new dish. But hey, if cooking isn’t your thing, and you prefer your leftover pizza cold from the fridge the next morning, we can get on board with that too! No judgement here.

We’ll take pizza in any form it comes!
