Recipe Notes
To store leftovers, place the slices in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one day. The watermelon may release some juice, so be sure to serve quickly.
It’s best to prepare watermelon pizza just before serving, as the fruit can get soggy if left too long. However, you can slice the watermelon ahead of time and store it in the fridge until ready to assemble.
