If you like pizza!

I have finally managed to create a decent little pizza base at home, and would love some inspiration for healthy toppings.

I am going to start with garlic, spinach, olives, tomato, peppers and mozzarella balls, with basil, various herbs, pepper.

Any alternative or more interesting ideas?

Mushrooms
asparagus
courgettes

Red pepper and onions. I also like chorizo but fry it off to get rid of some fat. Capers and anchovies are also popular.

And mozzarella of course!!!

Anchovies
Fresh tomato slices

I love garlicy potato and rosemary on pizza.

mumofoneAlonebutokay · 08/04/2025 20:38

Please tell us how you have made the pizza base

Mines probably just tomatoes and cheese, if I'm keeping it healthy

Doggymummar · 08/04/2025 20:38

Spinach and poached egg. fiorantino I think they call it.

Thinly sliced aubergine, courgette, a mix of wild mushrooms.

Richtea67 · 08/04/2025 20:40

Red onions, green peppers, sweetcorn and mushrooms. All sliced dead thin, and also spread out thinly so they don't make the base soggy. Sometimes also some flaked tuna.

IMustDoMoreExercise · 08/04/2025 20:41

Mushrooms

DragonsAreMySoulAnimal · 08/04/2025 20:46

Mushrooms and ham

Beachbodyready · 08/04/2025 20:49

BuntyVisitsTheMoon · 08/04/2025 20:50

Making a note of courgette and artichoke!

Egg on a pizza is really not a wild concept, I can't believe you have never heard of it! 😆

TheCurious0range · 08/04/2025 20:52

Prawn , garlic, chilli and either spinach or tenderstem broccoli

I also like loads of different mushrooms with lots of smoked garlic

We need to bring back homemade pizza as a healthy dinner option! It's a shame so many people's perceptions of it are Domino's and frozen stuff.

My favourite things on a pizza (as well as cheese of course) are anchovies, pineapple and mushrooms. Yes all together. The mixture of salty, sweet and earthy is just my sort of balance but I’m pretty sure I’d horrify all of Italy with it. Blush

WongKarCry · 08/04/2025 21:11

As pp said, artichoke is surprisingly really good on pizza. Asparagus can work well too.

YourCraftyGreyOP · 08/04/2025 21:17

I love a veggie pizza.

pesto, pineapple, peppers, mushrooms, red onion, courgette, rocket.

BuntyVisitsTheMoon · 08/04/2025 21:18

Yep. Nice thin crust with a good load of veg and herbs.
