Pizza is much like an artist's blank canvas.
It can be filled in with any color or portrait that comes to mind.
For instance, shredded cheese gives the impression that there is a lot of cheese layered on the pizza, when it is actually the artful manner in which it is draped onto the sauce that makes it seem that way.

Fruit For Dessert Pizza A lot of people wonder how the idea of fruit pizza with its many different styles came about.
Believe it or not, vegetables had a lot to do with the venture to fruits, as did cheeses.
Mozzarella cheese is very bland and demands a lot of cheese to produce flavor, so cheddar cheese, blue cheese, Monterey Jack and Pepper Jack cheeses, among others, became favorites.
Using flavorful cheeses for pizza means less cheese used, just one of the tips available in our recipe section.
Fresh vegetables became popular quickly as pizza recipes were developed with recommendations on which vegetables to together on pizza printed on recipes.
Two of the favorite fresh dark green vegetables used for pizza toppings are spinach, which shrinks while baking, and broccoli, which is cut into small flowerets and the stalk sliced into thin pieces for easy baking.
Orange vegetables such as sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, and squash are seldom seen in pizza recipes and although the color is pretty, the carrots are too crunchy and the squash and potato would turn too squishy.
Carrot sticks are a good vegetable to offer as an appetizer when pizza is on the menu, though.
Starchy vegetables have found their way to the pizza surface and show up in the form of green peas, potato slices, kernels of corn, and green lima beans.
Random scattering around the top of the pizza with fresh diced tomatoes to add to the color would create an extraordinary vegetable pizza.
