To enter my giveaway, please note: I will not award my prize to anyone who doesn't leave an individualized response. If I read the same comment by you that I see on every other blog, if you are the winner, I will choose another. Got it?
Now. For the rest of you: I would like to know what odd yet delicious things you eat on your pizza? We eat a lot of pizza around here, and I'm actually getting a little tired of buffalo chicken and blue cheese, potato and pesto, artichoke hearts with carmelized onions. So - some suggestions. If you don't like pizza, you can tell me why. I can't even begin to imagine. But I have a little girl who does not like pizza. And yes, we force her to eat it. Mean, mean parents.
I will choose my winner on December 16th and mail by the 21st. And yes, I will ship internationally. Now stop reading and go check out all those amazing giveaways. Good luck! Hope you win something!

I'm not sure how odd it is, but since I can't have cow's milk (baby allergic to cow milk proteins) I've been eating goat's milk mozzarella on my pizza when I (rarely) have it. It's a little strange, but better than no pizza at all.
ReplyDeleteLOL...Here's my individualized response..we get 2 Safeway's fresh pizza and all five of us top our parts differently. I love onion, mushroom, pineapple. YUM! I've just started some hand quilting, so those threads would be nice. What a find!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'm an old-fashioned Pizza Person. Give me all veggie (no olives), or Pepperoni, or Canadian Bacon/Pineapple, or... almost anything as long as there is no FISH!
ReplyDeleteindividualized response, i like it!
ReplyDeleteim defnitely an onion pizza kinda girl, bf hates it, i love it!
I'm a pizza purist and like to keep things simple. Only one topping at a time and of my favorite options: onion, sausage or pepperoni. Not very odd, but maybe it's odd to be so constrained? Here's hoping I win- great buy you got there!
ReplyDeleteI do love pizza, right now my fav is bbq chicken with pineapple and bacon. Delish! Thanks for the chance to win. Jodi B.
ReplyDeleteWhen my kids were young we used to have tinned sardines on our homemade pizza juat like my mother used to make. We don't eat much pizza these days.
ReplyDeleteLove those thread colours especially the browns and oranges.
Thanks so much for your giveaway! I think your hilarious pizza question precludes generic responses:) I don't know if it's an odd ingredient, but I do love roasted garlic on mine. I just make sure that I order it on my pizza on the nights when I don't have work the next day!
ReplyDeleteI love my pizza extra cheesy, but no blue cheeses please. I detest fruit on pizza I can not understand how people like a slice of pineapple on top yuck! As long as there's lots and lots of cheese any veggie will do, no meat I'm a vegetarian.
ReplyDeleteI could eat pizza everyday. We have a local restaurant
ReplyDeletePizzeria Ortica that makes my favorite pizza.
Salame piccante e funghi
Margherita with spicy salame, mixed mushrooms $17
This isn't very odd, but I love sauteed garlic and mushrooms with asparagus spears and prosciutto on my pizza. I also like a shmear of alfredo sauce with sausage, spinach and a few red pepper flakes. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteCaramelized beets and walnuts! It sounds strange but is SOOO good.
ReplyDeletePizza is God's food! I love it!! Lately our favorites are pepperoni with white sauce and extra cheese, Chicken, bacon,ranch with white sauce, provalone and mozzarella cheese. I honestly could eat pizza everyday tho and pretty much any type....tho I'm not into anchovies :-)
ReplyDeletegoat cheese and proscuitto. Homemade sauce and homemade crust.
ReplyDeleteLove it!
I'm pretty boring when it comes to my pizza... pineapple, ham, some of Trader Joe's quattro formaggio cheese... yum!
ReplyDeleteI'm not very weird or original where my pizza is concerned. I like cheese, and lots of it. Several different types of cheese mixed together are fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI am a huge fan of pineapples on pizza. I don't like meat on my pizza (not that my husband EVER remembers that, even though we've been married for 9 years).
ReplyDeleteI'm loving lots of Mozarella on my pizza and a local pizza restaurant does a fab dish where they have tons of rocket leaves on top too!!Mmmm!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was somewhat-vegetarian. I loved Spinach and Cheese pizza. Actually I still like spinach and cheese pizza. Don't know if that is strange, but I've only known two other people eat it. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI love pizza!
ReplyDeleteIt's not really odd, but my preference right now is pepperoni, black and green olives, with breakfast bacon.
I also like breakfast bacon (as opposed to Canadian bacon), artichoke hearts, sun dried tomatoes and kalamata olives.
Thanks for the opportunity!
reading all these comments has given ME ideas for pizza! Recently we had a pizza with handmade salame and fresh arugula on the side to place on top when you're ready to bite. It was really good! Thanks for the cool giveaway!
ReplyDeleteLove ham with pineapple for something different.
ReplyDeleteGosh your pizza sounds delicious. hmmm ours are so boring really. Mostly just tomato sauce and cheese!! However I do love chicken, cream cheese and cranberry sauce... yummy!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors! So my favorite go-to pizza toppings are tomato and artichoke hearts, BUT my favorite unusual pick is tuna! Sounds crazy, but I picked up a taste for this in Spain and it's actually kind of awesome (probably due to copious amounts of olive oil on the tuna!)
ReplyDeleteI love goat cheese on my pizza. Add some tomatoes, basil and onions and it's yummy!
ReplyDeletescarletteandcinnamon(at)gmail(dot)com
I'm severely allergic to dairy, so all my pizza is totally cheeseless. I put mushrooms, onions, and sausage on my pizza, but since that's not overly original, I'll add that I always either make my own pizza crust or I make little pizzas out of English muffins.
ReplyDeleteThe craziest thing I eat on pizza is sausage - ha ha! I have the palate of a nine-year-old (but that keeps my son very happy!). Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI don't eat pizza (should I run away now?) but like the idea of toppings like: ham & pineapple or anything bacon.
ReplyDeleteroasted garlic, spinach, and proscuitto
ReplyDeleteI love Wild Mushroom Pizza. Here is my recipe, I love it so much!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/wild-mushroom-pizza-with-truffle-oil-10000000630099/
My favorite pizza sauces: BBQ, Ranch, or Alfredo. Alfredo is probably my favorite. Get some chicken and ricotta and broccoli going and man, that's a nice pizza.
ReplyDeleteI like broccoli on my pizza..... : )
ReplyDeleteI don't like pizza! It's true!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
elzbeth.johnson@gmail.com
the best/strangest thing I've eaten on pizza recently is hot honey-- yep, spicy honey! Makes a really delish sweet/salty/spicy combo!
ReplyDeleteI also don't think my topping is especially strange but I guess it is a little unusual
ReplyDeletePear and prosciutto (with come mozzarella and brown sugar for caramelizing)
nutella pizza (as seen in Italy !!!)
ReplyDeletethank you !!
My all time favorite pizza toppings are ham, green peppers and artichoke hearts. Yum!
ReplyDeleteLOL... umm you maybe shocked.
ReplyDeleteMy hubby is japanese we eat
calamari fried in panko on our pizza.
It is his favorite. I love tomato
and fresh basil with it.
mmm yum.
Thank you for your sweet little
giveaway!!!
When I was younger, my answer would have been, without any hesitation at all, Canadian bacon and olives. Now I prefer pizza with a ranch/garlic white sauce and artichoke hearts. And olives.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE pizza. I was lucky enough to holiday in Italy in the summer and couldn't get enough of their thin crust stonebaked pizzas :) I love ham and pineapple, pepperoni and jalepenos and lately asparagus and a whole egg in the middle. Thanks for the fab giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love pizza and we make it from scratch here. (Gotta love having a bread machine to help).
ReplyDeleteOur favorite toppings include pepperoni, bacon, tomatoes, feta and basil. Though not always all on the same pizza. :)
I'm a big fan of dairy free cheese - daiya - and pineapples and chicken. I find ham keeps the heat to well and i hate burning my mouth on it and then being able to taste the rest of the pizza
ReplyDeleteMy daughter doesn't like pizza either. She also doesn't like any kind of meat.
ReplyDeleteAs for us, we are plain and eat pepperoni and cheese only. Yep. simple and plain and yummy :)

I love pizza but I don't think I eat anything odd on it. I love black kalamata olives on my pizza. I did make a pizza once that had sundried tomatoes on it but I don't think that is odd either. Maybe I am odd that I don't like so many different things on my pizza. lol
ReplyDeleteI don't really enjoy odd things on my pizza, but I do love a white pizza with spinach.
ReplyDeleteI'm a hawaiian girl. Pineapple and Canadian bacon--which I thought was so weird until my husband convinced me to try it. Salty and sweet!
ReplyDeleteWhat about mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, bacon and black olives? I love it!. I hope you do too. Thank you for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI'm boring and generally happy with pepperoni...pesto is pretty good too. Still, not very exciting I guess. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeletei love tuna on my pizza...
ReplyDelete:)
I love ham and pineapple. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeletebreaded eggplant, spinach, tomatoes, feta and kalamata olives. and if i won, you wouldn't have to ship. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is what Adrian said:
jhs sssssssslllllllllllllllllklkjhhhhhhhhehhhhh d;l,m gtjjjjjj
i can't think of any odd toppings that i've had on a pizza. unless you can consider shrimp an odd topping. cheers!
ReplyDeleteOk, firstly NEVER cheese, unless its red pepper and goats cheese. Ruins pizza. Second, lots of olives, capers and anchovies. Oh and I once had a chicken tikka masala pizza which was actually much better than it sounds!
ReplyDeletestashavalanche[at]gmail[dot]com
I love love love goat cheese and pesto. I tend to make my own crust using the "artisan bread in 5 mins a day" technique and then throw thins on it. Pesto, tomato, soft goat cheese....my heart, it melts (just like the cheese)
ReplyDeleteNormally I am just a pepperoni pizza find of gal but while in Coasta Rico I had the most amazing pizza ever that had salami and goat cheese. Doesn't sound that great but it was the most amazing pizza I have ever had!!
ReplyDeletepepperoni and portobellos. nothing crazy, just crazy good.
ReplyDeleteI love pizza, but we always do the same toppings - sausage and mushroom. Boring, I know! But it's yummy anyway!
ReplyDeleteI don't know that I have tried any really crazy toppings, like pineapple on my pizza, especially bbq chicken with Pineapple. I also like taco pizza but that is about as strange as it gets
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit boring, I just love pineapple and mushrooms. TO me that's the yummiest combo. I do sometimes make wheat-free pizzas though and the crust is the odd thing then as I use sweet potato in the dough!
ReplyDeleteHm, you've made me hungry now, I am seriously considering ordering in pizza (is that even allowed at 4:30 in the afternoon?).
I love a good pizza! I make my own dough and a garlic tomato sauce and keep it simple with a topping of cheese sprinkled with torn basil leaves once it is out of the oven. Reminds me of the pizzas we ate in Italy. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's very odd, but I like pizza with a peanut sauce, chicken, red peppers, bean sprouts and carrots.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! I love to use perle cotton!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pizzas are veggie and the best one I've ever had was at Chicago Pizza in San Jose CA. It was a variety of mushrooms with dried apricots and it was YUMMY!
seelorisew@hotmail.com
Pizza Pizza, love it! My favorite toppings are pepperoni, black olives, jalapenos, and bacon. When I'm in a daring mood, I'll through in some spinach and asparagus, very yummy!
ReplyDeleteI love eating weird things on pizza!!! Some of my favourites are cashew nuts, french fries and grapes!!
ReplyDeleteWow, your pizza toppings sound so exotic, I always have a seafood one and a super supreme. I do prefer the wood oven variety. We do have an aussie pizza which involves a cracked egg, personally, never tried it before though.
ReplyDeleteMy husband's uncle makes brick oven pizza, and he does a fantastic one with walnuts and gorgonzola that has just garlic and olive oil instead of sauce. It would be good with pears on it too, I think.
ReplyDeleteScore one the thread deal--I can NEVER find size 8!
I guess the weirdest pizza thing that we have done is using nan bread, butter chicken, peppers and some mozzarella. You can make it on the bbq as the nan bread is already cooked. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pizza is: ground beef, artichoke hearts, ricotta cheese and muchroom. Welp, I guess I know what I'm having for dinner tonight. :)
ReplyDeletePepperoni and pineapple. We don't have too much pizza, though.
ReplyDeleteI just had the best pizza last month with butternut squash, onions, cheese and cranberries. It was incredible.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOur local pizza chain does seasonal offerings and we often get that. The latest was pear, walnuts, caramelized onions and gorgonzola cheese: awesome! My 4-yr-old loves pineapple and Canadian bacon. My personal favorite is mushrooms and spicy Italian sausage.
Well, I like black olives and tiny shrimp. There used to be a pizza place called Shakeys, and the had this pizza....now I must make myself. Yum!!
ReplyDeleteI know it's considered sort of "normal" now, but I LOVE pineapple pizza. I still get weird looks sometimes when I order it with friends, but almost invariably, they love it as soon as they try it. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so there is this amazing pizza I get from this place called Pitfire. It's called Green Eggs and Ham and it's got Braised Rapini, a Farm Egg, Prosciutto and Parmesan. So delicious!
ReplyDeleteWell, I don't think these things are odd, but Hawaiian pizza has chunks of ham and pineapple...we like that. You could also make a breakfast pizza...you put cooked scrambled eggs...and any breakfast meat...instead of the red sauce, use melted butter and crushed garlic or powder. Cook the same as regular pizza, just eat in the morning or you can do it at night too. =)
ReplyDeleteThanks for a chance to win your lovely prize. =)
I subscribed to your blog LAST giveaway blog, and it sure has been pretty quiet over here!
ReplyDeleteWe make pizza every friday, I make my own dough, but with a picky little eater, we don't get that exciting with the toppings, just the usual pesto, mozza & tomatoes, or tomato sauce, mozza, peppers & onions.
I make a dough that is 1 part white flour, 1 part whole wheat flour and one part ground oats. It's really chewy and yummy.
My favorite is a garlic sauce with spinach and tomatoes on it.
ReplyDeleteHmmm ... odd? Who knows? My local quilt shop hosts a monthly "UFO Pizza Party" and "Mediteranian Vegetarian" is the pizza of choice (my fav). Broccoli, zuchini, feta cheese, black olives, and sun dried tomatoes. Yum!
ReplyDelete(and hooray for bargin bins! I'm just starting to get into embroidery and I'd love to have more inspiration)
Pineapple and cranberry sauce are yummy additions to my pizza! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDelete25 cents per spool!? Lucky you!! My favorite topping is not so weird, just plain ol' pineapple makes me happy. I do like to sprinkle some red pepper flakes on it though, makes it sweet with a kick.
ReplyDeletePizza- how about lobster on a pizza- heavenly. We had it on a trip to Iceland and I still dream about that pizza. Thanks for the give away.
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed buffalo cheese on my pizza made of gluten-free crust! It's so much fun eating dairy-free/gluten free, so full of adventure!
ReplyDeletecrazy great giveaway and I love feta cheese on pizza. So yummy
ReplyDeletecathy.erickson1@gmail.com
not sure how strange it is but my fave pizza these days: ham, pesto, shrimp and banana peppers. Yum!
ReplyDeletealso almond slices added to Hawaiian pizza
I don't like my pizza loaded up... just pepperoni, sausage and sauce... although, a white pizza is really good, too.
ReplyDeleteoooh! love this! if it is pizza, I love it.
ReplyDeleteI'm pregnant and all I want on my pizza is ham, bacon, and green olives. I'm hungry now thinking about it!
ReplyDeleteI don't think our pizza toppings are all that odd, but this is what we usually get: chicken, tomatoes, green olives, mushrooms, and goat cheese. Thank you so much for the lovely giveaway! I've been meaning to try hand quilting for a while, but haven't actually bought any Perle cotton yet, this would be perfect if I was lucky, ha! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou've got me drooling over this gorgeous floss AND the idea of yummy pizza... oh dear. ;) I have a girl here too that turns her nose up at pizza... insanity! She does eat it though if she has a hand in the making, so that's what I try to do.
ReplyDeleteNow, toppings... I don't know about unusual but my favourite home-made pizza has mushrooms, baby spinach, sun-dried tomato, olives, red onion & pineapple... *drools even more*
To be honest, I have a slice of pizza pretty much every day from a local place. The oddest combination I have had is peaches and blue cheese. Not my favorite, but it was tasty.
ReplyDeletemmm... buffalo chicken sounds good! I like my pizza homemade with portobello mushrooms and blue cheeze!
ReplyDelete...I see that someone responded that they like canadian Bacon/Pineapple... I live in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and here, bacon/pineapple is hawaïan pizza!
(How's that for a personnalised answer! lol!)
I don't think of it as odd, but my family thinks I'm crazy. My two daughters and fiance all like those pizzas with a million types of meat on them, and I like Canadian Bacon & Pineapple. They think it's weird to like fruit on pizza, but I think it gives a nice contrast to the meaty/cheesy/bready/tomatoey tastes already there. The pizza isn't as overwhelming as all-meat is to me, and besides, I like pineapple!
ReplyDeleteYour captions made me laugh. I like your snarky sense of humor - I speak fluent sarcasm :) I too have a picky child, and I totally make her eat whatever we eat, so I guess I'm a mean, mean parent too!
Oh my goodness - that was the buy of the century! Now for pizza...this may sound weird, but I like salad on my pizza. Not in a "look how healthy I am, I eat salad even on my pizza!" but in a "crisp mixed greens bathed in ranch dressing meld wonderfully with cheese and sauce" kind of way!
ReplyDeleteAnchovies. That's right, anchovies. With mushrooms? Even better. We host a pizza (homemade) party about once a month, and there are at least 5 of us who flip for the fishies. Thanks for the chance at a sweet giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThat's a tough question for me. My son's allergic to dairy so our pizza is not so hot (really, without cheese, is it worth it???). But if we did have pizza a lot, I think I'd definitely add anchovies (I know, not too original but nice and salty) and sundried tomotoes
ReplyDeleteYour find is unbelievable! Way to go! The best pizza- sausage, onion, cheese (lots of cheese) and sweet bbq sauce. MMMMMmmmm-delicious!
ReplyDeletePizza!! That's my favorite food!!1 hurrah! I love chicken, (boring I know!) but its insanely good with pinenuts, chili sauce and peanut butter!
ReplyDeleteI can't eat gluten or dairy, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying pizza! My wonderful boyfriend makes a great from-scratch gf crust, and we add all sorts of toppings: local sausage, mushrooms in large quantities, homemade sauce, zucchini, and whatever is in the fridge :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a basic cheese with extra cheese kind of gal.
ReplyDeleteI doubt that it is very odd but I love to have artichokes on my pepperoni/mushroom/black olive pizza on the rare occasion I can get them.
ReplyDeleteThough a good BBQ pizza rocks too. :)
I'm afraid I like very traditional toppings on my pizza - ham, pineapple, gr. pepper, onion and mushrooms. Once when vacationing in Cuba, and being a vegetarian, I ordered a pizza with vegetables. To my horror it came with cooked carrots on it. They were disgusting!!
ReplyDeleteLove your thread, and glad you found it at a 'selvage' shop - is that a thrift shop, or used items shop??
Thanks for the giveaway.
Have you tried fresh rocket, pear and shaved parmesan! Makes for a great fresh pizza topping! (Although the ones you've rejected sound pretty good!!!)
ReplyDeleteI do like pizza but it doesn't like me. My favorite is plain old pepperoni. But a canadian ham and pineapple is excellent also.
ReplyDeleteI love pizza but it doesn't love me so much anymore. But Greek pizza is sooooooo good! Feta cheese, kalamata olives, sundried tomatoes, eggplant, spinach! OH MY!!! Such good pizza! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteSivje
Oh this is awesome! I love it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pizza is a simple BBQ sauce base (not to much) BBq'd chicken, spinach, feta and a bit of asiago...yummers!
I always make homemade pizza and my favourite topping is sour cream spread as sauce, then topped with sliced, cooked potato, cheddar and crisp bacon. Maybe not odd to you, but it was a new idea to me when I heard it!
ReplyDeleteI love pepperoni, garlic and green olives together - but NO ONE in Seattle (who has a GOOD pizza) offers this as a topping! So I have to make it myself at home. :)
ReplyDeleteI never met a pizza I didn't like (except a really weird one in Spain). Mangelnsm@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge fan of pizza, but I do eat it every so often. I had some goat cheese pizza once, and just loved...loved it.
ReplyDeleteI like a whole lot of garlic on my pizza. I'm not sure if that's odd or personal, but it's my thing! Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE barbeque chicken on a pizza (truly southern!) Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy faves would be spinach, leeks and mushroom and maybe a free range egg - sorry nothing very unusual. I wonder about a sweet pizza with apple and cinnamon - but maybe that wouldn't count as a pizza...
ReplyDeleteMy kids only eat ham & cheese pizza, one of them even picks off the cheese! Our local pizza joint does a great Peri Peri Chicken but last Sat we ordered Szechuan Tiger Prawn. Yum! Thanks for the cool prize.
ReplyDeleteSince I normally go for pretty straight-forward toppings:onion, pepperoni,sausage. I will say my weirdest is when I had shrimp pizza in France but I had to make sure that there were no heads on the shrimp.
ReplyDeletelifeinsarahland(at)yahoo(dotcom)
I love homemade pizza! You should try it with spanish cured ham and onion. Simple but delicious! We normally also add some vegetables, whatever we have available at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI loves pizza!! I will pay for extra cheese and I loves all flavor.
ReplyDeleteThx for the chance to win :)
P/s: you won't see this comment from other blog.
I like a little bit of everything I can find in my fridge on my pizza! I am not a 'less is more' person when it comes to my pizza! on the other hand my daughter will only have cheese and tomato!
ReplyDeleteYummo Pizza! My favorite toppings are pineapple, ham, onion and hot peppers...so, so good!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite pizza topping is tuna, black olives, artichoke hearts, anchovies and capers.
ReplyDeleteI don't think its unusual but it's hard to get all the toppings from one single pizza place. Great giveaway.
I really like mine very mediterranean:
ReplyDelete- anchovies (although it makes you thirsty) with tomato sauce and mozarella
- goat cheese with red pepper (should be already cooked in the oven or barbeque)
And I sometime add a little pesto sauce or olive oil but not too much.
Terrific giveaway! Thanks
Canned sardines is the oddest I come to with homemade pizza... I'm rather conservative in my tastes. I rather love fish on my pizza, and don't always have tuna, so sardines it is.
ReplyDeleteI love extra bacon and pineapple (yes pineapple) on my pizza.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, your pizza toppings sound amazing! We're very simple pepperoni or ham & pineapple eaters in my house. I love those floss colors - thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeletePizza!! So many options: shrimp, feta cheese, fresh tomatoes, pepperoni with pineapple, zucchini....
ReplyDeleteI don't have anything odd that I like to have on my pizza, but mushrooms are a must!
ReplyDeletemrs.pulido@hotmail.com
Don't know how this would go over with your little one but there is a restaurant near us who does a PB&J pizza. I have a daughter who loves pizza and a son who could care less. I also LOVE my pizzas on the grill, most often with pesto, mozza, maybe a bit of prosciutto. Totally different flavor. I don't know if it's a southern thing or what but several places make a baked potato pizza. Basically baked potato toppings (cheese, bacon, potatoes, green onions). It's very heavy though (I can eat about one slice).
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to try these threads! Great giveaway, thank you. I am very, very picky about what I eat on pizza (which I love!). My favorite is canadian bacon, but I also like sausage or hamburger..with cheese and tomato sauce of course...but that's it, I don't eat pizza any other way.. LOL, Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteMy husband once had a cottage pie pizze, minced beef with sliced potatoes on top, it was pretty yummy. I always like cougettes or fresh rocket on pizzas
ReplyDeleteit's not really a weird topping, but I like fresh tomato slices on my pizza- preferably right from the garden. Yum!
ReplyDeleteHumm well I love BBQ sauce (instead of tomato) roasted chicken and red onions with mozzarella cheese. But I have had a wonderful alfredo (or creamy white sauce) sauce with boiled potato slices, bacon and green onions, when I was in France 2 summers ago! Super Yummy!
ReplyDeleteNot to odd, but I love bbq chicken, Gouda, cilantro with bbq sauce for the sauce under the cheese! Now I want to make homemade pizza. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI really don't have anything unusual on pizza at all. I can't stand onions, so they're never on it. Hmmm, I like cheese, different cheeses and pepper and sweetcorn and chicken. Wow, how boring am I?
ReplyDeletei love bacon and pineapple on my pizza. but probably the most unusual thing is that i don't like tomato sauce. i'd prefer to eat the pizza with just toppings and cheese. white pizza all the way.
ReplyDeleteHmm, well I haven't tried it before, but I've seen some cool recipes for pizza with butternut squash and sage -- I think that would be yummy!
ReplyDeleteMy son won't eat pizza either. Altho he won't eat anything with tomato sauce on it. It pretty much has to be plain. My fav is pesto with chicken. I like artichoke hearts too. yum
ReplyDeleteWell, I like broccoli and chicken pizza a lot, but I don't order it much...it's more a special treat kind of thing. It's even better if you can get it with a white sauce! Mmmm.....now I want pizza! LOL!
ReplyDeletejinglesells at gmail dot com
I love pineapple and ham, though I don't think that's very odd. My husband eats anchovies on his half though, which I think is icky.
ReplyDeleteLauraL444 at yahoo dot com
Mushrooms! I love mushrooms, chantarelles, crimini, shitakes, all blended together with a aged parm and rosemary!
ReplyDeleteI've never been very adventurous with my pizza toppings (not sure why). I am addicted to cream cheese pizza, though. My boyfriend thinks it's the most disgusting thing ever!
ReplyDeleteI'm not very odd with my pizza, sausage, onions, and mushrooms.
ReplyDeleteI did make a pizza that my family loved using ranch dressing, grilled chicken, and garlic.
feta cheese
ReplyDeletepizza is not for oddities to me. I love piles of mushrooms. the oddest i eat is pepperoni and jalapeno.
ReplyDeleteHi There!
ReplyDeletei love my pizza with extra mushrooms and lots of oregano :D
sometimes we go wild an order one with pineaple,chicken,bacon and fresh cream! YUMMI!
great giveaway!Thanks
kalinda189(at)gmail(dot)com
Oooh! Love the perle cottons! On my pizza I would love tuna, pineapple, hot peppers and blue cheese. Yum!
ReplyDeleteBaby spinach, garlic, olive oil, and goat cheese. Oh, and ground pepper! I make these at home using a flour tortilla for a crust. 10 minutes in the oven. You can't go wrong. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWell, the old stand by is olives and mushrooms but favorites I've had in the past are arugula, roasted potatoes thinly sliced with rosemary on white pizza, and zucchini flowers. Thank you, now I must wipe the drool off of my keyboard.
ReplyDelete:)
Good Question.... my favorite bizare pizza.... olive oil,,, think sliced red potatoes, rosemary, gorganzola cheese!
ReplyDeletekgshen (at) pocketinet (dot) com
I love pizza but am not a fan of pizza sauce. My favorite pizza is no sauce, pear, spinach, gorganzola cheese, walnuts. It's so yummy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win! =)
I just discovered that artichoke hearts are fantastic on pizza!! Yum.
ReplyDeleteI made a pizza once with roasted eggplant and zucchini--delicious! And you know those Indigoat or meals in the microwave bag? I saw on the back the suggestion to pour it on a pizza crust (I think the specific one was Punjab eggplant)! Sounds interesting and I think I'll try it soon.
ReplyDeleteI like zucchini on my pizza. With tomatoes and goat cheese. Yummy. :)
ReplyDeletepeachstateme(at)hotmail(d0t)com
I love pear and gorgonzola pizza!
ReplyDeleteGoat cheese! YUM!
ReplyDeleteI don't really know any odd combinations, but I love a good taco pizza or one with sausage, mushrooms, and pineapple.
ReplyDeleterebekahricker (at) yahoo (dot) com
Oh... I go for the very simple:
ReplyDeleteHandmade pizza dough (which really takes it times but one batch can be used for several days if stored in the fridge)... a real tomato sauce, nothing like ketchup or something with enhanced flavours... there are some more expensive ones who are really good if I don't have the nerves to make my own (and most I don't ^^)... then just some goat cheese... after baking adding some rucola and very, very thin cut serano (which would be a shame to bake ^^) and last but not least cherry tomatoes!
Nothing more, but I am addicted! Okay... that is not true... sometimes I change to aubergines and zuchinis!
Well, not sure how odd it is but ricotta cheese tastes terrific on pizza!
ReplyDeleteWe are putting banana peppers and feta on our pizza these days. Thanks for joining giveaway day. erincode-at-metzlers-dot-org.
ReplyDeletei like corn on my pizza, though I don't think that's very odd (it's normal here in England!). There is also a pizza that I make myself with a bunch of different cheeses on it (including goat cheese), sage leaves, and walnuts. Oh gosh, you got me hungry! Now I know what I will make for dinner tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteWe love to make up Satay Chicken to put on Pizza base with cashew nuts bake then add fresh bean sprouts and a dolop of sour cream to serve. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI love Tandoori chicken on pizza :)
ReplyDeletegreen olives, lots of onion, spicy sausage and/or salami, roasted tomatoes and fresh mozzarella
ReplyDeletethanks for the supper idea!
(my son likes grilled broccoli on his)
I don't think it is odd, but my favorite pizza includes roasted red pepper, eggplant, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, greek olives, fresh tomatoes and fresh mozzarella and is drizzled with pesto and topped with a grinding of sea salt and black pepper.
ReplyDeleteNow I am hungry!!
Thanks!
I always choose the same combination, olives tomatoes, anchovis and herbs
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I love to eat pizza, but I would not say that we put anything odd on it, just the normal stuff like sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, black olives, etc. Well, we do like green chile on it too, so maybe you would think that is odd.
ReplyDeletethanks!
My favorite pizza has extra cheese, sauteed mushrooms, artichokes, and garlic. That's my favorite. But the oddest I would eat is probably anchovies. Honestly I'll try anything once :)
ReplyDeleteI like it simple. VERY THIN Cheese pizza, maybe with some little pieces of tomato. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteHa! Your little captions are very cute. :) I like sunflower seed on my pizza. You should try it if you haven't already!
ReplyDeleteMy husband lived in Italy for a couple years, where he befriended a pizza maker (pizzaiolo) who taught him some tips and tricks of the trade. The thing that surprises people the most about our pizza is that for our pizza sauce, we use a can of peeled tomatoes blended (pulse it so the seeds don't burst) with a couple tablespoons of sugar mixed in. Some different pizza combos:
ReplyDelete(1) Whipping creme as a sauce (we've used either canned whipped creme or the whipping creme next to the milk, they're both good) + prosciutto
You could also put on some fruit instead of the prosciutto for a dessert pizza
(2) Red pizza sauce + fresh mozzarella + prosciutto + a cracked egg
My favorite though is just a classic margherita - red sauce, fresh mozzarella, fresh basil & a little bit of olive oil when it comes out of the oven. Delicious!
Oh yum. All your pizza toppings sound delicious! I need to shop the frozen pizza isle you are shopping. :o) I have been limited to the basics. :o) And we eat pizza every Friday night.
ReplyDeleteHowever, in town we have an amazing pizza place and we go there on special occasions. I always order the bacon chicken ranch. Angels sing from the clouds it is soo good. :o)
Thanks so much for your give a way.
My two favorite pizzas are:
ReplyDelete1. BBQ chicken - it has to have Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce, chicken strips, and bacon
2. pepperoni and banana peppers on thin crust
Now I wanna go order pizza! There is a great deal at our favorite shop tonight, so I really may have to.
A really unique and yummy pizza, that I had a friends house in Germany, had smoked salmon and cheese that slightly resembled cream cheese. I've been wanting to recreate that one for awhile! Thanks for the lovely giveaway!

Our favorite pizza is taco pizza with salsa in the sauce and ground beef with taco seasonings, tomatoes, green onions, cheddar and mozz. cheese! Mmmm...I've gotta make that again soon.
ReplyDeleteWe often have pizza night without the pizza. It all started when my Sweetie and my son decided to make appetizers before they served their homemade pizza. They took one ball of pizza dough and made knots, which they baked. While they were baking they melted some butter, and added finely minced garlic and chopped fresh basil and parsley. They also heated up a jar of marinara sauce. When the knots were done, we dipped them in individual tiny bowls of melted garlic butter, and marinara sauce. The knots were SO good that we forgot all about making pizza, and ate knots till we could eat no more.
ReplyDeleteWe have a small homestead and raise our own animals for meat. We make pepperoni from ground lamb meat. I love to make pizza with that, plus green olives and caramelized onions. Drool. My kids like green olives and grilled chicken on theirs. Another odd favorite? Curried grilled rabbit also with, green olives, of course ;) We really like green olives on pizza in our house. Pretty much any leftover meat and veg thrown on dough with sauce and cheese is alright by me!
ReplyDeleteWe are pretty boring over here pepperoni and cheese
ReplyDeleteWE LOVE 2 OR 3 KINDS OF MUSHROOMS ON OUR HOMEMADE PIZZA!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU FOR SUCH A NEAT GIVEAWAY!
I'M DOING SOME REDWORK WITH RED PERLE COTTONS THIS CHRISTMAS FOR THE FIRST TIME>I THINK IT IS JUST LOVELY
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL ♥
I'm one of those nasty parents that forces my son to eat pizza, too. Who knew it was possible for a child to hate it? Appalling! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not very odd as far as pizza. I like the pesto you've grown tired of and enjoy mixing all kinds of cheeses. See...boring...no help at all.
I'm off to look for a little cooking inspiration in the other comments.
Thanks for the chance!
We like beets on our pizza with caramelized onions and feta.
ReplyDeleteWe're vegetarians, so we load our pizzas with lots of fresh veggies. Spinach with feta and onions is delish.
ReplyDeleteooh how I love pizza! :) My fav is chicago style, with extra cheese and pineapple. My second choice is thin crust, extra crispy, topped with chicken and tomato - Yum! I could go for a thick slice of cheese & pineapple right now! :)
ReplyDeleteBest,
Michelle

Shrimp pizzas are delicious. Bertuccis is a restaurant in the Boston area that has amazing shrimp pizzas (one with a white sauce and another with a spicy marinara.) I've heard at-home shrimp pizzas are amazing, too!
ReplyDeleteArtichoke hearts sounds amazing! I usually just go full on veggie style, yum.
ReplyDeleteGoat cheese on pizza is really insanely good too!
Thanks for the chance!
Mmmmmm pizza! Blue cheese and banana is good, as are baked beans and brie with brown sauce....
ReplyDeleteI don't really eat anything too odd on pizza. I do like bacon on there, but usually just have pepperoni and black olives. Alas, I'm not able to gorge on it like I used to becuz I have to watch my fat intake due to a misbehaving gallbladder. I tried fat free cheese...oh no! The horror. It's like plastic cheese. Yick!
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Tracy Screaming Sardine
My favorite is the one we make at home. I can't remember the name of the bread....we call it bobola. It's like a big pita. We add Pace's hot sauce, pinta beans drained, onions, tomatoes, cheddar cheese and pepper jack cheese...hmmm....hmmm.good
ReplyDeleteIt's called Italian here in OK. It has feta cheese, lots of slightly hot banana peppers, mushrooms, pepperoni, black olive and italian sausage. Pretty good.
ReplyDeleteWe like to grill our pizza. We add chicken, grilled veggies, ground meat, and lots of cheese. Thanks for sharing your wonderful salvage yard find. Lucky you! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeletenot sure how weird it is, but i like black olives or chicken sausage and spinach on my pizza. my 18 month old doesn't like pizza either...i just don't get it!
ReplyDeletethanks for the giveaway!
Like any of the usual suspects plus JALAPENOs on pizza. Great deal on the thread. Good score!

ReplyDeleteI LOVE pizza! My mouth waters just thinking about it. My all time favorite pizza is mushroom, onion, and green peppers.
ReplyDeleteI love pineapple, ham and bacon on my ham. A bacon, lettuce and tomato pizza is good too!
ReplyDeleteramona_murray(at)comcast(dot)net
Pizza - homemade venison sausage and homegrown cherry tomatoes and jalepeno straight from the bush. We jazz up our frozen pizzas with extra stuff.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all what a score! I love pizza, but I'm a crazy boring...I do like pineapple and pepperoni. My kids will only eat pepperoni. I think you are so lucky to be living in Maine.
ReplyDeleteI love Ricotta and Artichoke pizza! Sometimes I have them throw some pepperoni on too! But really I never met a pizza I didnt like.
ReplyDeletei don't think it's odd, but i love black olives and sausage - yum! and recently we've started making our own stromboli - sooooooo good! fun giveaway!
ReplyDeletebess :)
Ham and pineapple would be one of my favorites! But mushrooms would be near the list of favorites as well. Lots of cheese.
ReplyDeleteI like basil, pepperoni and sausage. We call it the Brooklyn Family after our favorite pizza place's menu item.
