Thanks! I have plenty of new ideas now!

The only real answer:

Crushed tomatoes w/ a pinch of salt and perhaps a tiny bit of garlic. Buffalo Mozzarella. Optional sprinkling of Parmesan. Optional drizzle of olive oil after baking. Fresh Basil.

However there’re plenty of other tasty combos I really like:

Olives, tomatoes, pineapple and jalapenos or bell peppers.

Tomatoes and spinach and broccoli

Gruyere and carmelized onions

A touch of tamarind chutney instead of sauce and curried zucchini, yellow squash, onions, top with fresh cilantro after baking

Chicken on pizza is gross.

clams & garlic with some parm and parsley on a kind of burnt thin crust

Oysters Rockefeller Pie:

Creamed spinach with some fennel, parsley and onion in it, smallish oysters, cook till there are crunchy tips on the oysters and bits of the spinach.

Word. So is broccoli. Sausage and mushrooms is my favorite combo. Fancy or plain.

Dick_Krueger · February 21, 2009, 7:04pm

I’m old fashioned - my favorite is sausage, mushroom, and anchovy.

Broccoli rabe and fresh garlic

Eggplant and hot cherry peppers

Artichokes and sausage

absolutely! … as is pasta (ziti)

my favorite is meat lover’s - heavy on the bacon , with any of the following:

roasted garlic
thyme
basil
oregano
roasted tomatoes
green olives
onions
pepperocini

– and Ranch dressing or flavored sour cream for dipping

yeah … real healthy, I know.

There was a place I used to go to in Hermosa Beach that made a baked ziti pizza. It was so weird… like having a third piece of bread as the meat in your sandwich.

exactly … i don’t get the starch-on-starch thing

… now, meat-on-meat (a la pepperoni on steak ) … that’s a different issue completely [ok.gif]

Amen.

A lot of your peeps are going to pizza hell for your favorite toppings.

Margherita
Pepperoni
Sausage / pepper / onions
Mushroom
White clam pizza

That’s all you really need IMHO.

What Aaron said.

I love sausage and mushrooms, just such a great homey pick-me up combo.

John_Tomasso · February 25, 2009, 1:20pm

No fans of potato?
I understand the aversion to starch on starch, but you must try this.

Potatoes, sliced extremely thin, with porcini mushroom, and sliced fresh mozzarella.
Or potatoes and caramelized onions.

Makes a very tasty pie.

M_M_c_C_a_l_l · February 25, 2009, 2:51pm

Is it a white pizza? Potatoes and porcini sounds good, but not so much with tomatoes/tomato sauce.

David_Wright · February 25, 2009, 3:31pm

When I lived in Seattle, there was a place near the art museum that made a Potato & Gorgonzola pizza. It was suprisingly tasty. I believe that the sauce was white.

John_Tomasso · February 25, 2009, 4:11pm

yes, sorry. No red sauce on that baby. It’s a white pizza.

M_M_c_C_a_l_l · February 25, 2009, 4:16pm

I could do that, then. It sounds pretty good!

mike_pobega · February 27, 2009, 12:38am

If there be a topping it be pepperoni. I like to keep it real…real simple.
