scrapbookbuzz Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Greetings and welcome to the Lounge! When you eat pizza, what do you like to have on it? Here: I like pepperoni and/or sausage, bell peppers, onions, diced tomatoes, and basil. Altogether or a variation thereof. However, having to eat gluten-free, that can be cost prohibitive so I usually just get one topping. Thin, traditional, or pan/thick crust? Here: gf pizza is all thin crust. I miss being able to eat deep-dish pizza! What is your accomanying beverage? Here: I find several drinks go well with pizza. Orange juice (yes, really), root beer, soda in general. Talk to me! :bigear: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 We have a food truck nearby that makes the most amazing wood fired gluten free (and gluten filled) pizza. Thin crust that tastes so much better because of the wood fueled pizza oven. I like to get bbq chicken, red onions and mushrooms on it. No cheese because I'm dairy free as well as gluten free (sigh). I drink water with it. I love root beer though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizabeth86 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 My favorite pizzas has white sauce chicken, bacon and onions. or pizza juts ultimate cheese lovers with several types of cheese and white sauce. I also like pepperoni, green peppers, red onions and jalepenos stuffef crust. I like to drink pepsi or sweet tea. I also enjoy oj with pizza along with a few other odd things too. Thought I was the only one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butter Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Pizza toppings: Black olives and green peppers are my comfort food toppings. When I was a kid we got pizza every Friday and it was always with black olives and green peppers. I like bacon, sausage, and pepperoni and will get them sometimes. If I am going dairy-free (I can take a Lactaid, but if I have too many dairy meals in a row taking so many Lactaids ends up causing problems in the opposite direction), I'll get spinach and sundried tomatoes. Dairy-free pizzas I usually totally load up on toppings. Crust type: I prefer traditional, but with the exception of this one local pizza place, GF crusts are, as you said, all thin. It's sad. Beverage: Root Beer. Seriously, if I can find a reason to drink root beer I will! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I was the only one. Discovered it totally by acciden! I think I was in college. I was the only one at home that night, so had pizza. Went to get something to drink and the only thing besides water was orange juice. I remember thinking, "This is going to taste nasty after pizza" and being surprised at good it tasted!

scrapbookbuzz Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 Today and tomorrow are supposed to be record-breaking hot days again and I'm feeling it! I swear this heat is going to do me in! I really need to be working on straightening the downstairs because I won't be able to for the next 3 days, really, and yet I feel sidelined by the summer "blahs." Oi!

ScoutTN Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 (edited) Pizza! I like most any toppings except black olives or anchovies. Lots of veggies and a meat, usually. I like white sauce with artichoke hearts and spinach and red onions. I like medium or thin crust. Dd may need to be gf soon, so our pizza options may change. For a drink, usually water, but occasionally wine and once in a very long while, beer. I do like root beer, but I never buy it, so there isn't any here to eat with the pizza.

ScoutTN Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 This is making me crave Italian food. Glad I'm making eggplant parmesan tonight! Gf! I "bread" the eggplant with cheap parmesan cheese. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithManor Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I have feta cheese green pepper, chicken, and mushrooms when there is a gluten free crust available which of necessity means thin. Water or iced tea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonhawk Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 As a kid I loved Hawaiian pizza, because of the pineapple. But, now that I have to share with non-pineapple-loving people, I usually go for supreme toppings. I've recently liked mediterranean pizzas, with tomatoes and olives and basil, etc., on them, though I don't trust mainstream pizza chains to really do this well. Traditional crust usually, thin for mediterranean types. I'm actually trying to stop drinking when eating, so that I don't dilute the stomach acid and it helps with digestion (so they tell me, I haven't done independent research on this so don't quote me on that). But, if I am drinking with pizza I'll go with water or root beer. As an aside on pizza, I think I ate more bagel pizza as a kid than actual pizza. And it sounds really good to me right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapbookbuzz Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 So dinner tonight was not pizza. LOL For the normal-eating folk in the house I mixed white rice with a can of Stagg Chili and a can of Hormel. For myself, I mixed a bag of Madras Red Lentils, a Hebrew National hotdog, and white rice. Oh, and I added garlic and black cumin seeds to both. I feel like I need another nap. But that would be the third one today (I swaer this heat is going to do me in one of these days) and it's a little late to do that. Plus, I need to figure out what I'm wearing to Convention tomorrow and Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pippen Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 At home--yellow peppers, sweet onion and olives, traditional crust, with Diet Dr. Pepper Out--cheese or pepperoni, traditional crust, with water. When I was a kid I loved orange juice with pizza. My mom often served it that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeWillSoar Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I like "supreme" pizza, deep dish or regular (although now I have to have gf :crying:) and I must have a coke with it!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutTN Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I disliked cooked tomatoes and tomato sauce as a kid and almost never ate pizza! Seems so odd when I think of how often I buy or make pizza or other food with a tomato sauce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Yell Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 (edited) When you eat pizza, what do you like to have on it? SweetChild just started a job at our favorite pizza place! If she gets a good employee discount, we're going crazy on toppings tomorrow night! Mushrooms onions, black olives, sausage in half. I'll make a gluten free pizza for Diamond 3/5 of us can't eat pork, so I wish pizza places had turkey sausage to turkey pepperoni. . Thin, traditional, or pan/thick crust? Don't care if it's a good crust. For so-so crusts, traditional. What is your accomanying beverage? soda, RC cola or Coke preferred, root beer is fine too.

dirty ethel rackham Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Chiming in a day late (procrastinating on walking the dog in this heat, as if waiting would make it better, lol.) I admit that, when it comes to pizza, I'm a traditionalist. If it doesn't have a red sauce and "normal" ingredients", it isn't pizza. It's flatbread. ;-) I prefer wood-fired thin crust pizza, but love a good deep-dish pizza as well. Lou Malnoti has to be my favorite deep dish ... I love their spinach pizza. On a thin crust, I love green pepper, artichoke hearts, black olives (not green), pepperoni, sausage (only if it is good sausage ) and a really good tomato sauce. I really can't stand onions on my pizza. It's partially a texture thing and partially my distaste for ions that were cut up and left to sit ... the smell is nauseating and they give me an upset stomach. I did have pizza with arugula on it ... but I didn't expect it to be heaped on like a salad on top of a pizza. But, it was still yummy (but I am sure it was the wood-fired crust.) Dh asked for a slice of my "weed" pizza, LOL. I usually drink water with my meals, but I do like an icy cold diet Pepsi on occasion. If I could handle it, I'd really prefer a glass of red wine. But alcohol and me ... not good friends. Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
