The Most Epic French Onion Soup Pizza made with just 5 key ingredients for a delicious pizza twist on the classic soup recipe!

OK OK guys hello!!!!! This is the most delicious pizza recipe ever. Or really delicious recipe in general now that I am thinking about it.

We can thank my crazy breastfeeding cravings (yes that is a thing over here) for this idea. It is the most insane flavor combination. And as someone who loves caramelized onions and a ll things white pizza – I am in actual heaven when I eat this pizza.

Call me crazy but I don’t even love french onion soup usually. This pizza recipe though may convert me over because I don’t think there is something I won’t eat with this flavor combination now. We have already made this pizza recipe twice in 2 weeks. That is how much we are obsessing over it. And I may sound weird, but it tastes kicka$$ cold too. Or you can heat it on the skillet or in the oven like a civilized human. I go full on savage mode and have no patience when it comes to leftovers.

If you guys do make this recipe and enjoy it – let us know what you think! I hope you love it as much as we do.
