List: 8 Tasty Pizza Recipes

It’s September 5, so you know what that means—time to celebrate National Cheese Pizza Day! Last year I joined with some friends to determine the best slice of cheese pizza in OKC. This year, I’m keeping it close to home and rounding up eight of my all-time homemade pizza recipes. They all include cheese, of course, but they also feature some delicious toppings and killer sauces.
