Barbecue Pineapple, Jalapeno and Feta Pizza

Average rating of 8.7. (Although it would have been higher if Ezra had better taste.)

Here is the recipe:

Pizza dough (use whatever recipe you want, this is what we use)

1/2 cup barbecue sauce
2 cups cheese
1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into 1/4 inch pieces (we used almost a whole pineapple)

Thai Chicken Pizza

Average rating of 8.4.

Here is the recipe:

Pizza dough (use whatever recipe you want, this is what we use)

1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ginger powder
1/4 c. soy sauce
1 T olive oil
1/2 tsp. fish sauce
4 T Thai sweet chili sauce 
1 1/2 c. smooth peanut butter
1/2 c. very warm water
1 c. shredded chicken

4 T Thai sweet chili sauce 
2 cups shredded cheese
8 oz. bean sprouts
2 cups shredded carrots
1/4 c. chopped peanuts

Mix first 8 ingredients in blender. Add more water as needed to thin out (I needed to add at least 1 cup more).

Spread pizza dough on cookie sheet. Spread the next 4 T of Thai sweet chili sauce, as well as most of the peanut butter mixture. Top with chicken and cheese. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes.

Top cooked pizza with bean sprouts and carrots. Drizzle with some of the remaining sauce. (You'll have some sauce leftover. Don't add it all. This was something I regret doing when I made this.) Top with chopped peanuts and serve.

Shakshuka Pizza

Average rating of 7.5 (although Ezra's low vote probably swayed it down a bit).

Here is the recipe:

Pizza dough (use whatever recipe you want, this is what we use)

2 T butter

1 onion, chopped

4 cloves garlic, chopped

2 tsp cumin

a large pinch of sugar

salt and pepper, to taste

2 T tomato paste

2 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes

8 eggs

8 oz crumbled feta

Heat the butter in a pot over medium and add the onion. Cook until soft and translucent, 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, sugar, a good pinch of salt, and some black pepper, and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and diced tomatoes and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.

Spread dough in cookie sheet. Top the pizza with the tomato sauce, create 8 wells on top of pizza, and then crack the eggs into them. sprinkle with feta, and then bake at 400 for 15 minutes, or until eggs are set.
