Re: best pizza toppings???
Love red pepper, mushroom & artichokes w.basil & oregano seasonings... that's one of my favorites.
bacon...with anything!
I love the Harbormaster pizza at Portland Pie Co. - red sauce, chicken in bbq sauce, carmelized onions, and bacon.
I'm there with you, I love green peppers, onions and mushrooms. Not exciting but it is a classic combo!
I don't have any particular combos, but we like artichokes, capers, mushrooms, chicken, onions (raw), bacon, basil, fresh tomatoes, and black olives.
I have been on as asparagus pizza kick lately - whole wheat dough, dotted with goat cheese and ricotta (I usually do half and half because DH is crazy and doesn't like goat cheese), shaved asparagus tossed with olive oil, salt and pepper, and sometimes crumbled bacon/prosciutto/pancetta...once it is baked, toss a handful of arugula on each piece just before serving, so it wilts a bit...in the case of leftovers, I only put the arugula on each piece as it's served, so it won't get soggy in the fridge.
I had a great recipe for a Mexican-style pizza - I usually make some changes, but it's a great place to start - http://ladiesrecipes.wikidot.com/black-bean-and-avocado-pizza
Otherwise, I love grilled eggplant and mozzarella with tomato sauce, BBQ chicken with caramelized red onion and smoked gouda, shrimp with garlic/parmesan/herbs...we LOVE homemade pizza.
I love Portland Pie's beer dough! DH says I make the best pizza...lol!
I like chicken, bacon, onion and black olive... but DH doesn't so usually when I make it, I use a beer dough, red sauce and a 5 cheese blend and add a few boring things like pepperoni or sausage...
my other trick is I work a little garlic salt and Parmesan cheeseinto the dough and it makes it really yummy! just a couple of tricks I learned working in a pizza shop!
I also make a killer breakfast pizza with bacon, sausage, and onions
We don't like the same things on pizza either, so I always split the portland pie dough in half, and we each have what we like.
