Rainbow: I love Rainbow Pizza because it’s so pretty AND tasty! It’s a bit time consuming to chop all the veggies, but that also means it’s a great chance to involve the whole family in meal prep. (I like these kids’ knives which my daughter started using to mince veggies for gumbo when she was three.) One of the best things about this recipe is that the veggies in it are easy to get year-round.

Taco Pizza

Taco: Why choose between Taco Tuesday and Pizza Friday when you can have both? This Taco Pizza from Culinary Hill makes things super easy by using a pre-baked crust, but you could take things up a notch my making your own dough (or using a store-bought dough) spiced with a bit of cumin or even a pinch of taco seasoning.

Mini Deep Dish: When I was growing up, my mom totally invented these, but she wasn’t fancy and she called them pizza cupcakes. Okay, maybe she was a little bit fancy because we also made our own dough instead of cheating and using crescent roll dough. Whatever way you go with the dough, though, these are delicious, and your kids will totally love filling their own little pizzas up with toppings of their choice. These are a huge hit at kids’ parties for just that reason, FYI.

bbq pizza

BBQ Chicken: While we’re throwing cook-out food on top of our pizza, why not toss some BBQ chicken on there? No, seriously, it’s really good. Personally, I skip the onions and the cilantro (my husband is one of those people who thinks cilantro tastes like soap), but BBQ chicken and a good pizza crust is ah-mazing.

This is a recipe for classic BBQ chicken pizza with tangy BBQ sauce, chicken, and red onion.
