I have done a pizza with a good bbq sauce and whatever toppings you want. If ya want a ranch one, I would prolly stick with a chicken pizza.

NO! You wouldn’t want to. The dressing would separate in to an oily mess. I f you must have this my suggestion would be to cook the pizza dough completely, have your toppings cooked, drained and hot then put the ranch on the the pizza bread.Add your toppings and some cheese and pop pizza back to oven just to melt cheese.

Suggested toppings: grilled chicken, thinly sliced zucchini and red onions.

I've never had it myself but have heard of it plenty of times. Some good toppings would be chicken (plain or even maye a lemon pepper), bacon, artichoke hearts, olives and maybe some avacado on top before or after you bake it. Don't put to much ranch on though, make it a nice even layer.

no, I wouldn’t do it … but if you really want to put it on a pizza, I’d suggest that you make a pizza without tomato sauce, maybe like a cheddar blend or something instead of mozzarella and then either use buffalo chicken or bacon, maybe even some roasted potato or some veggies like brocoli and zucchini and drizzle the dressing on after the pizza is cooked; or make just cheese and crust, then toss a garden salad in a bit of ranch dressing and put that on top of the pizza when it comes out.

try this for a pizza:
1 pizza crust (home made or bought)
1 can chicken breast, drained
1/2 cup sliced yellow squash or zucchini
1 small can sliced black olives
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup parmasan cheese, grated

Spread:
1 clove garlic crushed or pressed
1/2 cup cream cheese softened
2 tbsp mayonaise
1/2 pkg ranch dressing mix

Mix the ranch dressing, cream cheese, garlic and mayo, then spread on pizza crust. Layer on all other ingredients in order given, top with parmasan cheese, bake in oven at about 350 until crust is crispy and cheese is melted. You may want to wait until pizza is almost done before adding cheese.

I wouldn't add anything to it. When I used BBQ sauce to make my BBQ chicken pizza I used the sauce right out of the bottle.

There are a couple of chain restaurants that do just that.

gross, was my first thought (even though i like to dip my pizza in ranch from time to time – but instead of sauce???)
if you really want to try it, i would use just a little ranch. and then if it’s not enough, you have plenty to dip with. if you water it down (with water)it’ll just be runny and make your pizza soggy(i would imagine).

toppings would be good ol cheese and pepperoni
