  5. Sprinkle the grated mozzarella and Monterey Jack cheeses over the toppings.
  6. Season generously with coarse black pepper and sprinkle the chopped fresh tarragon over the top.

Note

If you don't have fresh tarragon, you can substitute with 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon or 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley or basil for a different herbal note.

For a vegetarian version, omit the turkey and antipasto spread (check that your antipasto is vegetarian-friendly if desired) and add extra mushrooms or roasted peppers.

Leftover pizza can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in the oven at 350ðF for 10 minutes to restore crispiness.

Ensure the turkey is fully cooked before assembling the pizza. Using leftover roasted turkey works perfectly for this recipe.
