Tomato, green pepper, onions, black olives and pine nuts pizza



For this pizza, I put the tomatoes and onions underneath the cheese, so this is what it looked like.

As you can see, the cheese totally hides the tomatoes. I also put green peppers, pine nuts and olives on the pizza.



Garlic Breadstick Pizza

For this "pizza", I bought some garlic bread dough and basically stuffed it with pizza sauce, cheese, and onions. It was pretty good, although I think I prefer my other crust better.



Green Pepper, Olive and Pine Nuts Pizza

This pizza includes: green peppers, olives and pine nuts. As for the cheese, I put cut up pieces of mozzarella cheese and also sprinkles a mixture of yellow and white cheese (called fiesta blend form Wal-mart). The mozzarella cheese turned out really good on the pizza when melted!


Also, you might be able to notice that I did the crust right such that it sticks up around the edges. I can't always get it right, but it's fun when I do.

Green Pepper Pizza


This was a yummy pizza, and I really liked the colors. The green peppers certainly make the pizza look pretty.

Cilantro Soup Pizza


I don't remember exactly how I came up with this idea, but I really like it. Since my family loves the cilantro soup so much, they should enjoy the pizza too. It pretty much has all the same ingredients.

You chop up the green onions, white onions and green peppers.

Then in a bowl you mash the beans, and add rotell.

Then you spread the bean mixture over the pizza.


Then add the toppings on top.

I was planning on putting cheese on the pizza, but I forgot to! As it turns out, it tasted good without the cheese, but it did taste a little less pizza like because of it. I might try making it with the cheese sometime as well. I would definitely say this was a success though.

Fake Pepperoni Pizza


I finally have been in the mood for pizzas again. I was making many pizzas before I got pregnant, and then I lost all interest in pizzas until just this month (the third trimester). I have been trying to get more complex carbohydrates, so for the crust, I took the Walmart pizza crust mix and added ground flax seeds, wheat germ and vital wheat gluten. That gave it some extra nutrients, and it didn't make it taste bad or anything. I like it this way rather than using whole wheat flour since the crust is always hard when I do that.



The toppings were: fake pepperonis (made of soy I think), roma tomatoes, white onion, cheese of course and some basil for seasoning. Oh, and I usually use Prego spaghetti sauce as the sauce, but this time we tried Bertroli's marinara sauce and wow it was good!! The pizza overall was amazing.
