Special Notes

This garbage bread is a fun and easy way to use up leftover pizza toppings. The name comes from the idea of throwing all your favorite toppings into one bread. You can customize the fillings with any ingredients you like - ham, bacon, different cheeses, or vegetables. The key is not to overfill the dough to prevent it from bursting during baking. This makes a great appetizer or main course for parties.
