Really need new ideas, I do look at the menu but am never convinced!
Firstly I always go bbq sauce (I know, I know...) and secondly I always want aaalll the veggie toppings but still like the meat.... Soggy.
Minefield. I'm a Domino's Texas BBQ orderer with no shame, although no longer Domino's as they don't deliver to the tiny village we're in, but I digress. Help me, Mumsnetters, what do you order for pizza night?

If you wanna vote: Yes for stick to the usual, vote No for try new (less sweet) pizza tonight!

I always go for the veggie supreme and then add a couple of meat toppings.

Ni pizza places where I live now Sad but when I used to live near one, my go to was toppings wise was garlic, olives, pineapple, onion and I'd sprinkle on extra bluecheese on at home and with an obscene amount of garlic dip on the side!

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 05/02/2021 19:26

I like a veggie sizzler

TheChosenTwo · 05/02/2021 19:27

Anyone who eats bbq IBVVVVU for a start Grin
We make pizzas, I always have the same, a think smearing of tomato sauce, cheese, fresh chopped chilli and fresh sliced red onion.
Delicious!
Occasionally I make a pizza bianco but no one else likes these so I don’t bother often as it’s just for me. There was a lovely recipe I once going, perhaps from the greedy Italians, suits me perfectly as I’m not keen on tomato sauce.
I had an amazing one in Lisbon once and it has stayed with me as the second best pizza I had ever eaten - the first being a pizza i had in Rome. Ahhh, remember the days where we could go to other places?!

CoronaIsWatching · 05/02/2021 19:27

Pepperoni
Onion
Mushrooms
Red Peppers

OrangeGinLemonFanta · 05/02/2021 19:27

Texts bbq with the Italian base, or a pepperoni, normal tomato sauce, also on Italian base. Chicken wings, garlic dip for the crusts, a lovely cold glass of coke.

TooStressyTooMessy · 05/02/2021 19:30

I always get a vegetable supreme type one. Now you have made me want to order barbecue sauce next time though Smile.

FolkyFoxFace · 05/02/2021 19:31

Thin and crispy, all of the veg, tomato base.

OR

Something 'fancy' Papa John's used to do a lovely balsamic goats cheese one. That was delicious.

Now I'm a coeliac and can't safely order from any. I'm very jealous. Please enjoy on my behalf. Grin

hammeringinmyhead · 05/02/2021 19:31

Eurgh, I hate BBQ instead of tomato sauce! I always have pepperoni, olives, capers and anchovies. Mmm.

SlippersForFlippers · 05/02/2021 19:35

Ham, mushroom, onion. Either from an Italian restaurant or Domino's, everywhere else here makes pizzas that are way too deep for my liking.n

SummerHouse · 05/02/2021 19:36

What is yes. YABU or YANBU? I am voting no but clearly can't work it out.

Anyway no - get a pepperoni. Fuck all the veg nonsense and the BBQ sauce travesty. Have a little dipping pop if you must.

Also can you get those jalapeno cheese bites - they are the best thing on earth.

shitinmyhandsandclap · 05/02/2021 19:40

What @Worraliberty said, veggie supreme and I add chicken, ham and tuna

SummerHouse · 05/02/2021 19:46

@shitinmyhandsandclap

What *@Worraliberty* said, veggie supreme and I add chicken, ham and tuna
This is basically all the toppings. Grin
MadeForThis · 05/02/2021 19:46

Bacon, Cajun chicken, olives, tomatoes, peppers. Mushrooms, sweet corn.

Garlic dip x 3.

Toiletrollbuyer · 05/02/2021 19:49

Veggie supreme, no sweet corn and extra jalapeño and olives 👌

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 05/02/2021 19:49

As many toppings as will fit, and brutally spicy. I have the brain of a hardcore stoner trapped in the body of a 39yo mum.

SummerHouse · 05/02/2021 19:52

Praps get two. One with all the toppings and then an overflow one. Lordy I am hungry.

Vinorosso74 · 05/02/2021 19:53

YABVU to get a pizza from Dominos! If you have a Dominos nearby then you must have a decent Italian with delivery/takeaway. Has to have black olives and mushrooms. Maybe artichokes. And some chilli oil but that's better on fresh in the restaurant. I miss eating out!

InTheShadowOfTheMushroomCloud · 05/02/2021 19:54

I don't like pizza..... sneaks away...

ChristinaMarlowe · 05/02/2021 19:57

Oh dear, @TheChosenTwo DH is Portuguese, Lisbon born and bred and is now wandering the lounge singing "Lisboa...." Thanks for that. 🤣🤣
@WorraLiberty has it right, and you had me, @shitinmyhandsandclap , until the tuna. You beast. How could you... aaaany of you fishy pizza people.... Just.. gonnae naw.

Thanks for all replies... ordering soon, so far it's a ham and pineapple with hot chilli base (sweet and hot is the best, I reckon. Love spice but needs sweet added. Asda did this popcorn seasoning once, wavy pre-montage cinematics, I will spare you it was ah-may-zing.) Hm. Onion perhaps. I hate this, "add extra toppings.... £1.50 each" Uhm, naw. That's like £9 extra for one half cheap ass pineapple ring, one mushroom, two and a half olives (sliced) and a chicken goujon.

Disclaimer: I have so paid the £9. More than once. Oh the shame. The shame is making me hungry.....?

We used to love a pizza called 'Mexican Chilli' from a place called Pizza Magic in Cardiff. It was incredible and we ate it far more than was good for us because it was so good! Then the owners/recipe changed and it's not the same, I won't touch it now.

I quite like the Co-op pizzas but the nicest ones are the ones I compile myself now. I say 'compile' as I don't make them, it's a pizza base (from Aldi), smear on a good amount of tomato puree, add slices of mozzarella and thinly sliced tomatoes - and this is the delicious bit - small chunks of green pepper, everywhere, then cheddar. I spray the top with rosemary oil. It's much, much nicer than it sounds and we all like it. Cheap too.

Womencanlift · 05/02/2021 19:59

If you ever get the chance to go to MOD in Leicester Square in London then I would definitely recommend it. It’s basically like Subway but for pizza.

You choose your size of base and then you can choose any combination of toppings (unlimited). And for central London it is really cheap

Pukkatea · 05/02/2021 20:03

Dominos combos:

Pepperoni passion
Bbq sauce, meatballs and jalapeños
Tandoori chicken, pepperoni, herbs and jalapeños (this was better with the sundried tomato sauce they used to do)

Yabu to get veg on a dominos other than jalapeños.

For proper pizza:
White pizza with sausage and broccoli
Salami and artichoke
Nduja and peppers

Treaclepie19 · 05/02/2021 20:13

Veggie sizzler!
Alas I can't eat takeaway pizza because it makes me ill 😭
