Pizza toppings -- what are your faves?

[Libby Pritchett]

So as I sit here eating my yummy ham, pineapple, black olive, and mushroom pizza from Papa John's... I'm thinking about how much I love pineapple on pizza. I never used to order it cause my ex didn't like it, but it's definitely my favorite. Something about that little kick of sweetness with the salty toppings... yum!

What's your very favorite pizza topping?

fresh mushrooms and green peppers.

I also love pineapple on pizza. I used to order it with green peppers and onions. Yum!

Now I usually order onions, green peppers, black olives, tomatoes and spinach. Now I'm hungry for pizza!

I'll pick at veggie pizza but nobody else likes it so I stick to cheese lol

 

[NeverendingJen]

if in italy? diavola, sorrentina, capriciosa

in america? meatlovers!

 

[eranslow]

I'm boring - pepperoni!

Regarding the ranch - when I moved out to CA I was super surprised to see everyone dip their pizza into ranch - definitely something you don't see very often in the Midwest!

Ask Heather Roselli how much I love cheese? DAMNIT! Also, I love this awesome BBQ chicken pizza that's at a local place and it's just delicious. But yeah..cheesier the better.

 

[Penny Springmann]

black olives and tomatoes with crushed red pepper sprinkled on top!

 

[xboxmom]

I make a wicked BBQ chicken pizza I put some red onion and black Beans on it! Its delicious! Also Alfrado sauce, Spinach and chicken pizza!

 

[DawnMarch]

pepperoni and black olive are my favorite. NO pineapple!

 

[4noisyboys]

I love a good veggie pizza, and I love to put pineapple on that too...also artichoke hearts, tomatoes, green peppers, etc...but NO olives.

But...I love pepperoni and jalapeno's! YUM!

 

[Julie Billingsley]

Pineapple and pepperoni Yum!

 

[digideb]

Meatlovers with mushrooms!!! And yes, ranch on the side to dip it in!

 

[lovely1m]

My favorite is a Margaurita pizza (yeah, not spelled right). But if I can't get that my fav is veggie or cheese.

And ranch on pizza? gross.

 

[littlekiwi]

Ham & Pineapple or Pepperoni & Cheese or BBQ Chicken & Bacon or if my work (Pizza Hut NZ) still had it Chicken & Cranberry

 

[Leila]

New York style thin crust (not crackery--just thin), cheese.

If we order Papa John's, I get the Hawaiian BBQ chicken pizza, hold the onions, extra cheese.

And when we go to Ian's, it's the NY style as above OR their mac & cheese pizza. OMG--so good!!

Oh, do not serve me deep dish. Ever. Ew. Cheese goes on top, sauce on bottom. Ew.

 

[MandaBean]

Ranch and pizza are a match made in heaven. Also, ranch as a dip for french fries. YUMM! Of course, this is from my previous experiences..ranch isn't the best thing for a weight watcher. Boo!

 

[littlekiwi]

I agree, I like thin & crispy from one company and classic base from the other - I send back burnt and wrong pizzas even though I am staff & get a discount with Pizza Hut.

 

[emmasmommy]

Ranch on frozen pizza only, please

 

[Gemma]

Ham and pineapple. :thumbup:

Although OH doesn't like it, so I get chicken and garlic.

Ranch dressing

1 1/2 cups FF or lowfat buttermilk
1/2 cup reduced fat mayo
1 package of original ranch dressing mix.

Mix altogether. 1/4 C = 1 point

it's way better than any FF ranch out there

here's another too that I made..I like the first one better

Ingredients

* 1 1/3 cups low-fat buttermilk
* 2/3 cup low-fat mayonnaise
* 2/3 cup low-fat sour cream
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1 teaspoon onion powder
* 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
* 2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill
* 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon pepper

(dried herbs is fine if you don't have fresh)

Directions

1. Whisk together the buttermilk, mayonnaise, and sour cream in a bowl. Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, chives, dill, parsley, salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.

2 Tablespoonfuls=1 pt

You can also mix a ranch dry packet with Greek yogurt..i don't know the ratio though so might have to play and see...i haven't done that one but heard it's good

I like Ci-Ci's ham & cheddar with alfredo sauce...yum. I also like their BBQ with cheddar. ...but if I'm not at Ci-Ci's (which there is not one real close) ... I really do like a Hawaiian ... pineapple and ham. ...but since the family doesn't like any of the above ... most times we eat **hamburger**.

 

[Kiki]

Meat spaghetti sauce and fresh green peppers....don't knock it til you try it!

 

[meganmecrazy]

The more mushrooms the better! I love veggies on pizza!

 

[Lauren Reid]

i LOVE pinapple too!

my current fav is: veggie w/o cheese oh and you HAVE to add on banana peppers (you know those vinegary ones!)

the kids:
josh - cheese only
justin & jessica - black olives

 

[Kat Stokes]

We LOVE Ham, Pineapple and Jalapenos. YUM!!! Of course I am a total pepperoni & black olive girl too. Actually, now that I think of it, I love MOST pizza toppings. A good combination, CPK's BBQ Chicken, a good garlic chicken. As long as there are no anchovies, I'm good.

There were a couple of posts about ranch dressing on pizza. For those who have a Trader Joe's near you in the refrigerator section there is a low fat Parmesan ranch that is Yum! 30 calories and 1.5 grams of fat per 2Tbsp. (I think that's like 1 WW point but not sure). That and fat free Italian are all I eat on my salads anymore.

As far as pizza toppings go I'll eat any of the norms except for anchovies, olives and I agree about fruit on pizza..no pineapple!

 

[Tracyfish]

I love jalapenos and banana peppers, but can usually only get that on half because the guys don't like it.

I love jalapenos and banana peppers, but can usually only get that on half because the guys don't like it.

same here...some of my boys like them, but my dh and one son can't take them...so we get half and half! I haven't tried the banana peppers on them...just the jalapenos, but we love them so I think I'll order it next time! Yum!!
