In the form of two new pizzas, Schlotzsky's Austin Eatery is now offering a fun way for people to experience some of its most popular sandwiches. The eatery is known for The Original sandwich, which is served on its famous Fresh-from-Scratch, but now people have the option of enjoying The Original Pizza for a limited time.
The Original Pizza shares some of the same ingredients as the eatery's signature sandwich, including its house-made sourdough crust with sesame seeds, which is topped with salami, mozzarella and Parmesan, black olives, red onion, tomato and signature sauce.
Just as it turned The Original into a pizza, Schlotzsky's is also offering a Fiesta Chicken Pizza based on its Fiesta Chicken sandwich, which is full of ingredients and flavors that customers are already familiar with.
