Everybody loves pizza night, but the same old red sauce, mozzarella, and pepperoni can get boring, even if it’s always delicious. Consider some of these alternatives if you want to spice up your next pizza.
White Pizza
Ditch the red sauce, and try out the lighter, often crispier pizza Bianca. What you lack in sauce, you can make up for with cheese—try a blend of ricotta and mozzarella, and consider adding toppings such as mushrooms, sausage, or spinach.
Buffalo Chicken Pizza
This pie for spice lovers swaps out the traditional sauce for Buffalo sauce—a blend of hot sauce and butter. Dice up some grilled chicken breast, add some green and red onions, and drizzle with ranch and you’ll be enjoying one of the world’s great sandwiches in pizza form.
Lasagna Pizza
If you’re having a tough time deciding between pasta or lasagna, why not have both? You can use your standard pizza sauce with this one, but it will taste anything but standard! Use ground Italian sausage cooked with garlic, oregano, and basil. Now here’s where it gets interesting—in addition to mozzarella and parmesan, you’ll be dolloping on a delicious blend of mascarpone and ricotta cheese.
