SO I love pizza, more than any other food by far. I don't know why, but I just do. I make it myself, order it, buy it frozen, everything. But I'm getting a little bored with all the normal toppings and flavors. I want something or a flavor to jump out at me and punch me in the face. Any help or ideas for me? Leave 'em I'll be waiting!

The only way that I will eat pizza (don't really care for it to much) is with pineapple and canadian bacon.
I remember going to camp a LONG long time ago and we made breakfast pizza and a dessert pizza. I am sure you can think of ways to make that work for ya!

I'm the same way! I like to make pizza bites like the frozen kind, but homemade are to fattening (frying in the oil) and purchased are high in fat. So I am looking too!

I am not sure what you have used already for toppings, but my favorite topping has got to be artichoke hearts, spinache, garlic, shrimp, and mushrooms with a light marinanra sauch and mozzerella cheese. I get it all the time at Zio's pizza on a thin NY style crust. Its devine!
