The Genius Way to Make Leftover Pizza 10x Better
I'm a sucker for a good food mashup. Think sushi burritos and donut burgers—gloriously over-the-top combos that somehow just work. But every so often, I stumble across one that makes me pause mid-scroll and question the sanity of the Internet. That's exactly what happened when I saw this epic creation from TikTok account @seriousfoodfetish. It's a pizza sandwich, a salad pizza and a chicken pizza all at once—and it's as wild as it sounds!Related: 😋😋 SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & more in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter.🍳🍔 This isn't just a sandwich. This is a culinary dare, a tower of chaos that only a true comfort food enthusiast could dream up. Here's how you make it: take two slices of leftover pizza (yes, two entire slices), air fry them to get the cheese all melty and the crust crisp again. While the pizza is heating up, toss together a Caesar salad (it's all about the balance). Next, air fry a breaded chicken fillet until it's golden and comes the fun part! Pile some of that fresh Caesar salad on top of one slice of pizza (cheese side up), add the crispy chicken, then layer on even more salad. Top it with the second slice of pizza (cheese side down) and give it a good press. Wrap it up, slice it in half, and prepare yourself for a mind-bending bite that somehow makes At first glance, this sandwich sounds like a chaotic mix of leftovers, but there's a method to the madness. The crispiness of the air-fried pizza crust acts like a sturdy sandwich bread, while the gooey cheese melts into the chicken and salad, tying all the flavors together. The Caesar salad adds a refreshing crunch and a bit of tang that cuts through the richness of the cheese and chicken, keeping the whole thing from becoming too heavy. It's the kind of over-the-top, unapologetic comfort food that can only come from someone who truly understands the joy of combining unexpected flavors and textures. Also, you would probably consider eating a Caesar salad as a side dish for a slice of pizza. This mashup just puts the two things together in one dish. Related: Feeling brave? Take this already outrageous mashup to new levels. Swap the Caesar salad for buffalo sauce-drenched lettuce, add blue cheese crumbles and use a spicy, breaded chicken fillet for a sandwich that packs a fiery punch. Stick with the Italian theme and make a chopped salad (romaine, cheese, your favorite Italian meats) and layer that with the chicken. Hit everything with a drizzle of Italian dressing before closing the sandwich for a true Italian deli-inspired twist. Use BBQ chicken pizza slices, a crispy fried chicken fillet and a slathering of ranch dressing. Add a few pickled jalapeños for a bit of heat. If you're still on the fence, just think about how satisfying it will be to hold this monster of a sandwich in your hands, knowing you've defied both culinary logic and the rules of reasonable sandwich-making. Plus, it's the perfect way to use up those random leftover pizza slices you'd normally just reheat and eat over the sink (we've all been there). So why not take a leap of faith and bite into something wild and wonderful? Up Next:

For a luxury Italian getaway, enjoy a taste of La Dolce Vita at these places
A raft of new and renovated properties is opening in Italy just in time for the lazy, sun-drenched days of summer. From Tuscany to Puglia, here are a handful of newcomers and thoughtful restorations, including a boutique hotel in a 16th-century Baroque mansion in Lecce and a collection of luxe villas in the mountains of Chianti. Pensione America, Forte dei Marmi, Lucca: Dating to the early 1920s, this one-time Tuscan villa, and then pensione (or boarding house), by the Ligurian Sea, has been transformed into an adults-only beach escape. Where there were once dozens of rooms, there are now just 18 rooms and suites. All have terraces or verandas; bamboo furniture that lends a breezy, seaside feel; and products from Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella, the venerable Italian fragrance and personal care brand. If you really want to spread out, consider booking the two-storey casita, La Villetta, which has a garden and a plunge pool. Created by Collezione Em (the hotels of which include the Grand Hotel Minerva in Florence and the Violino d'Oro in Venice), Pensione America is part of the Leading Hotels of the World collection of luxury properties. You can delight in la dolce vita amid the gardens, on a tennis court and in the pool decorated with Sicilian tiles. Go for a stroll or ride on one of the free bikes to the nearby beaches for which the area is known. Begin each morning at the hotel's restaurant and indulge in sweet crepes or eggs in tomato sauce. At lunchtime, you'll find a menu inspired by the surrounding waters, with seafood dishes, such as ravioli with shellfish and spaghetti with arselle (little clams). The restaurant is also open for dinner. Prices from 1,600 euros (about $2,500) a night. La Roqqa, Porto Ercole, Grosseto: On the harbour of Porto Ercole on Tuscany's Argentario peninsula (a drive of about one-and-a-half to two hours from Rome), La Roqqa underwent a three-year renovation and is now a 50-room-and-suite boutique hotel designed by the Milan-based Palomba Serafini Associati studio. Bold lighting and furniture from the 1960s and '70s add nostalgic touches to the common areas, while many of the minimalist guest rooms are awash in the colours of the surrounding land and sea. Suites, in contrast, sport lighter hues. All rooms have outdoor spaces with views of hills and trees or the sea. But why just look from afar when you can get up close? Stretch out under an umbrella at Isolotto Beach Club, part of La Roqqa, on a sandy stretch of beach amid the otherwise rocky coast. Take in the Mediterranean air by hiking, cycling or horseback-riding. Treat yourself to a massage or a facial, or spend some time in the sauna. The hotel, part of Miramis Hospitality, has its own yacht that can take you to nearby islands, such as Giglio and Giannutri, and can arrange experiences such as lessons in wine-tasting and cooking. If you'd rather someone else did the cooking, order seafood by the water at Isolotto Beach Club, or head over to the hotel's Scirocco restaurant for family-style Tuscan dishes (and wines), including homemade pastas and dumplings such as gnudi with sheep ricotta and nettle, cacio e pepe sauce and fermented lime. Watch day turn to night at the Scirocco Rooftop Bar, where you can sip a cocktail — the hotel has several that it says were inspired by Caravaggio paintings — as you gaze out over the Corsini Botanical Garden and the harbour. Prices from 380 euros (just less than $600) a night. Palazzo Zimara, Lecce: The historical centre of Lecce, in the Apulia region, is rife with baroque buildings, including this boutique hotel in a limestone mansion that dates to 1557. After a four-year renovation, the property is now an 18-room-and-suite getaway that mixes contemporary design with vaulted ceilings and graceful arches. The rooms are elegant and spare, with 18th-century wooden doors, and each nods to the building's past, with different touches, including stone walls, brick-and-lime floors, and walls adorned with frescoes. For a special occasion, book the more-than-1,000-square-foot Suite Zimara, with a balcony, two bathrooms and your own hammam, Jacuzzi and fireplace. Palazzo Zimara is in the heart of the city, so you can go out for a meal or dine al fresco at the hotel's La Bocca restaurant. In the mornings, sip caffè leccese, iced coffee sweetened with almond syrup, and sample pastries and local cheeses. Later, try Italian dishes that change with the seasons, such as a misticanza salad with peach, walnut and cocoa; and croaker fish, puttanesca style. Unwind with a glass of wine while people-watching from the terrace at Radino Wine Bistro. The hotel, part of the D'Angelo Family Collection, a family-run hospitality group, has plans to open a rooftop bar next year. Prices from 240 euros ($375) a night. The Social Hub, Rome: Part of a vast, new complex in the capital that includes coworking and event spaces as well as a soon-to-open public park, the contemporary Social Hub Rome hotel is near the Termini train station in the San Lorenzo neighbourhood, which makes it a potential jumping off point for trips outside the city. On the site of a former railway customs house, in an area buzzing with students, the hotel offers 396 affordable rooms for both short and extended stays. The Social Hub, which is based in Amsterdam, operates 21 hotels in Europe and, as its name suggests, aims to bring locals and tourists together in hubs that may include hotels, gyms and other spaces. At the Rome location, guests can attend free community events such as yoga and craft workshops. (Details are on the site's Instagram page.) The rooms, all with desks, have a no-fuss youthful vibe. Stop into the all-day restaurant and bar on the ground floor for dishes, such as rabbit porchetta or fettuccine with smoked butter and Parmigiano-Reggiano, along with a glass of organic wine. Or grab a slice at Berberè Pizzeria Roma San Lorenzo, which is part of the complex. In early June there will also be a rooftop pool and bar where you can order shareable plates. A 24-hour gym is scheduled to open then as well. Prices from 90 euros a night. (If you're visiting for more than 14 days, you can book an extended stay in a studio or an apartment with a kitchenette and weekly cleaning.) A&K Private Estates: The Chianti Collection, Chianti region: This summer, luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent is rolling out five estates for families and groups seeking plush villas in Chianti, the Tuscan region beloved for its mountains and wine. The properties, available May 31, include renovated farmhouses and wine estates with romantic views of hills, olive groves and vineyards. Your trip begins at the airport, where a private car will pick you up. Rates include a case of Tuscan wine and a hamper of food — think homemade bread, local olives and cheese — as well as breakfast, housekeeping and experiences, which include welcome and farewell dinners, a wine-tasting on the estate (or in the winery on your property), a cooking class with — who else? — an Italian chef and a photography session, as well as private return airport transfers. Ranging from five to 10 bedrooms, the estates have amenities such as pools, outdoor kitchens, gyms, wine cellars and a concierge who can book restaurants and private chefs, and arrange car rentals and spa appointments. Prices start at around $75,550 a week for up to 10 people at Villa Pianvecchio, a five-bedroom farmhouse on a wine estate. (Split among 10 people, the sum is not quite as intimidating.)
