Ever stare longingly at the mountains of cheese and pre-made pizza dough at Trader Joe's and dream of pizza greatness? My friend, your time has come! Trader Joe's is hosting a Pizza Party Recipe Contest, and the only thing hotter than their Habañero Hot Sauce is the chance to win a $200 gift card and some serious Instagram cred.

Here's the cheesy, delicious lowdown:

• Your recipe must be created only using Trader Joe's goodies (think fancy cheeses, weird but wonderful frozen stuff, and all those glorious spice mixes). Bonus points for creativity! Deep dish? Flatbread? Pizza on a stick (we're not judging)? Go nuts! But seriously - pistachios on pizza? Yes, please!

• There's a seven-ingredient limit (salt, pepper, butter, cooking oil, sugar and water don't count towards the seven-ingredient maximum). Note that any and all garnishes count toward the ingredient limit.

• Once your culinary concoction is Instagram-worthy, snap a pic, post to IG and write out the entire recipe in the caption. Hashtag it #TJsPizzaContest so they know you're a contender.

• Make sure your profile is public for your recipe to be considered.

• The contest runs from April 1-14, 2024. 

Winner Takes All

The grand prize is a $200 Trader Joe's gift card and the ultimate bragging rights - your pizza recipe will be featured on TJ's website. Two runners-up will also snag $100 gift cards, and all three winning entries will be posted to the brand's Instagram page.

So, what are you waiting for? Dust off your rolling pin, unleash your inner Chris Bianco, and get ready to win big at the Trader Joe's Pizza Party!
