I don’t know about you, but I love a good salad with my pepperoni pizza. Salads are amazing game day foods because they can easily complement a pizza, and they store well. This Pizza Salad was easy to make and prepare ahead of time. Served with homemade pizza crisps, this salad is jam-packed with nutritional ingredients, and flavor.
The best part? My kids actually LOVE it! Making Pizza Salad to accompany your game day meals, snacks, or desserts is a blast!

The Pepperoni pizza salad sounds delicious. I’ve been reading a lot about the Red Baron products. I’ve got to try this.
I’m a guy, so I have to be suckered into eating salad. Guys spend most of their time avoiding salad, until their wives tell them it’s no longer an option. Combining pizza with salad is a perfect way to sucker any guy into eating their greens, and actually make them want to do it!
Pizza Salad? My mind just exploded. LOL I have to make this for the family!
I agree with you, I love a good salad with my pizza. These homemade pizza crisps sound amazing!
The part about game minutes vs. real minutes is so funny because I did not grow up watching football, but my husband is a huge fan, so I had to learn the realities of how long a game really is as an adult. As for your game day snack… pizza, a good salad, and a great piece of bread to go with it – YUM! #client
This looks perfect! I think we are going to get all of the above for this Sundays game!
What a fun idea for game day ! Love all the fresh veggies with the pizza !
Pizza is always a good call. Game Day is a day for easy to make and easy to eat foods, like the pizza & salad.
I am definitely making this salad for lunch this weekend. My kids are going to love it. I will have to pick up a Edward’s Key Lime Pie for dessert.
I love Edward’s Key Lime Pie. It is always a big hit when i serve it. This Pepperoni Pizza Salad looks delicious and easy to make. I will have to give it a try.
Pepperoni salad looks so delicious. My family would love it. Edwards Pie is a great treat to enjoy for dessert.
I’d love to make some pepperoni salad for the family. It would be perfect with some Red Baron pizza.
Love those crisps, they sound so tasty! Red Baron does make a great football watching food!
We love pizza at my house! How have I never thought of pizza salad before? Brilliant!
Great idea for the game day food. I’m getting all sorts of ideas of what I want to make for the Super Bowl and this might make some of my list.
That looks so good! I definitely need to try this.
