Pizza and I, we’ve long had a love affair.
While I tend toward the large, thin-crust types, I’m a tad fickle when it comes to toppings–cheese, meats, vegetables, I love them all. From what can only be described as hot dog pizza in Canada (yikes!) to kebab pizza in Sweden (so, good), I’ve had my share of flings.
Yet when it comes to the pie itself, I’ll always be true. It’s the first thing that comes to mind after an illness, and the last thing I’d ever think to give up.
Speaking of which, this hint of autumn in the air has got me thinking–pizza is the perfect meal to usher out one season, and welcome in the next. As simple or entailed as you wish, there’s a little something for everyone. Throw your pie in the oven or on the grill, pour drinks all around, then sit back and enjoy the company of those you love.
And because I care, a few recipes to get you on your way . . .
- Pizza without the red sauce
- Lavish Vegetarian pizza
- Lahmacun Turkish pizza
- Bacon, Potato, Rosemary, and Fontina pizza
- Thin-crust Thai Chicken pizza {like Papa Murphy’s, which, I might add, was delic)
- Spicy Meat Lovers pizza with salad {if you’re in the US you’ll have to convert measurements, but it looks to be worth it}
- Grilled BBQ Chicken pizza
- Pizza with Figs, Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, Balsamic, and Arugula

PS–Did I miss anything especially good? Do share. Because you realize, don’t you, that hoarding deliciousness all to yourself is strictly forbidden by the International Pie Code of Conduct. Pretty sure.
Here is a good recipe for the crust: http://radioboston.wbur.org/2010/09/02/ny-pizza-r…
Mmm, New York Style–Thanks, Jamie!
And for some strange reason you also remind me of another: gluten free . . . say, perhaps: http://mjspantry.wordpress.com/2011/11/10/pizza-n…

Veggie pizzas are THE BEST – particularly because I can share them with my family
My recent post Orange you glad to see me?
Oh yes, I do love me a good veggie pizza . . . . especially those with olive oil instead of sauce, tons of fresh veggies, and delectable cheeses. So good!
