Copycat Pickle Pizza

Calling all pickle lovers! This copycat pickle pizza is amazing with a white garlic sauce and lots of dill goodness!

Sometimes I find food pictures on Pinterest that are not linked to any website or recipe in any way shape or form. But I can be persistent and if I can't find the recipe, I'll try and find a description of what the food is. This particular recipe was one I had to come up with on my own. The pizza is a copycat of one you can find at Rhino's Pizzeria in Webster, New York and Rochester, New York. I am no where near New York (and we were still a few hours away when we did live in New York), so I hunted to see if there was a description of what was on the pizza. Their website says a white garlic pizza topped with mozzarella, dill pickles, and a dill weed sprinkle. I found a super amazing white garlic pizza sauce and it's killer and personally the reason why I think this is such a good recipe. I did not use a dill weed sprinkle because I did a thing of where I thought I had some, so I didn't pick any up at the store and then discovered in the middle of making it that I had no dill weed. Obviously that isn't a dealbreaker. If you love pickles, make this pizza. It's so awesome!

I have basically been trying to find all sorts of dill treats, so if you know of any, please leave me a link in the comments! I definitely want to try this 5-Minute Dill Pickle Chex Mix from Averie Cooks. I can personally vouch for this Fried Pork Chops with Dill Pickle Gravy because I've made it and posted it and LOVED it.
