Pizza toppings

Ok, I’m after your favourite pizza toppings along with some inventive veg garden combos. Pizza or calzone I don’t mind (calzone for those not sure is a folded pizza which looks like our Cornish pasty)

We already do

margarita - grated Parmesan, grated mozzarella, basil 
Neopolitan - grated Parmesan, fresh buffalo mozarella, basil & olive oil
Arugula - grated mozzarella, prosciutto, rocket
Patatas - thin potato, rosemary, grated mozzarella
Garlic Bread - roasted whole garlic, parsley, butter, grated mozzarella 
Pomodorino - oven dried cherry tomatoes in olive oil, grated mozzarella and basil

Now I’m looking for veg or veg and meat combo which might work as toppings. I love roasted broccoli for example so maybe roasted broccoli with blue cheese. I’m open to ideas the wackier the better. Try and avoid the chain restaurant standard combos though I’m working outside the box here, and we have the whole garden to play with. 

I will try and photography the tastiest sounding combos. Smile

Ok I’ve got one Big Grin

Fig, buffalo mozzarella, Parma ham

And another Big Grin

Cranberry sauce not tomato, Camembert, roast garlic and rosemary

You don’t have to JJB, it’s all about food flavour combos. Anything which will work with bread and cheese. Tomato is interchangeable with other ingredients. So garlic butter can be used as a moist base instead.

I was thinking about courgette, fennel maybe, not sure about fresh peas but crushed ones might work, you just need the right cheese.

Also pudding pizzas options, so sultanas cinnamon, honey nothing is potentially out of the question. You just need to part cook some ingredients as the pizza is only in the oven for about 79-90 seconds dependant on heat inside.

You can use pizza dough to make baguettes they are a very simple bread dough. So any bread based dish is also possible. I think we might get Some of the best flavour combos by coming at it from a non pizza perspective.

Not a pizza topping but I love to sit down and nibble a bunch of grapes with a triangle of brie! Big Grin

We like to use mascarpone on some of the saltier (prosciutto or parma ham) pizzas we make.
