Pizza |Pad Patter 10.6

We don't ever order pizza in. I buy the kids & me a DiGiornio pepperoni or three meat pizza & DH gets a tiny GF one. We have pizza every Friday night and usually watch a movie before bed.

I only eat meat on my pizza, DD prefers to have only pepperoni, DS is too little to have an opinion yet, and DH will eat anything, generally speaking, if it's not moving too fast. :giggle
 
I love pizza! LOVE! :giggle

Oldest boy eats plain... and is weird. Sometimes he takes the cheese off?!
Youngest boy likes plain, and pepperoni mostly. Will try others.

DH and I love:
Grilled Chicken, Bacon, Ranch Pizza.
Sausage, Pepper and Onion - with or with out Mild Pepperonici
Buffalo Chicken Pizza
Chicken Parmigiana Pizza
Margherita Pizza

Our pizza here in NJ is really yummy. I think that makes me a bit of a snob regarding pizza! lol!
There are so many great pizzaria's around these parts... but our favorite is Luigi's! NOM! They make a great square pie with awesome crust and just perfect. Not too thick, thin, just enough toppings and so tasty!

I am not a fruit person on my pizza. Just can't.
 
We always get separate pizzas. Tim likes pepperoni, sausage, onion, black olives and mushrooms. I usually eat pepperoni (sometimes with black olives). Kennedy will basically only eat Little Caesars pepperoni because he thinks he doesn't like "cheese," and even though it has cheese, he doesn't realize it? Weird. I know. If we go to Godfather's, we'll get the combo minus mushrooms and onions (but the pepperoni has to be on top of the cheese) and we'll all eat that (I will pick off the sausage when it gets too much for me).

Sometimes we go to Farelli's. They are pretty pricey, so it is only occasional. Jessica and I will order a "James Special" but we change it up and leave off the sausage. It ends up being the garlic white sauce, cheese, roasted chicken breast, and crumbles of bacon. Then we add cashews. That is a weird thing that I add because they offer them, and they are yummy on that pizza. I am normally not a huge cashew fan, but on that, it is droolworthy.

My favorite is MOD. Their prices are a flat rate and you can add any toppings you want. Amazing. And they have super thin crust and everything is fresh and yummy.
 
Depends!
I like the frozen CPK bbq chicken pizzas. Dominos? Mushroom and onion. Pizza Hut? Supreme. Costco? The one with all the veggies and meat. I do love pepperoni. Hawaiian too. Fancy pizza places? Some sort of bbq chicken or other fancy chicken with some different sauce.

I just don't like black olives. Those are kind of gross to me. I know I'm in a minority.
 
I made macaroni and cheese instead. But now I'm intrigued by some of these pizza places. I hate that part of moving - finding a new pizza place that makes good pizza, not cardboard pizza.
 
In Montreal everything is all dressed. For pizza that means pepperoni, mushrooms and green pepper. Cheese on top. Pepperoni here is more like lunch meat though, not the hard small disks I was used to floating on top from the states.
We generally get all dressed, cause everyone likes it. If I'm on my own I might take only pepperoni or something yummy like black olives goat cheese and anchovies. Not too many places here offer gluten free crust yet so we don't order much anymore.
 
Lindzee reminded me of another pizza we like... We buy a dough from a local pizzaria and then we put BBQ sauce, Goat Cheese and carmelized onions on there... sometimes adding chicken or bacon... SO yummy! Oh... the best part - grill it to perfection!

Courtney, I hope you find a good one, sometimes they are hard to find! LOL! I read Mac & Cheese... and thought over pizza!?!?! Never! :giggle

We used to have a place just down the road from us and next to the video store that was the ONE pizza that we all agreed on. It was so yummy and fast! We'd walk in and order our pizza, walk over to the video store and pick out a movie or two and then by the time we'd go back to the pizza place, it was ready to go. It was our go to Friday night with the kids for years. Then one day... just gone! They closed and we all mourned.

We all can agree on Pepperoni and mushroom. The youngest picks the pepperoni off (and gives it to me). When my hubby and i go out to a different local pizza joint, we'll get fancier stuff that the kids don't like, like Garlic Greek or BBQ chicken, etc.
