Do you like pizza? If you do, you are not alone since pizza is one of the most popular meals in the United States today. Although pizza can be made in many different ways, it usually has a flat, bread-like base, which is topped with some type of tomato sauce. This, in turn, can be topped with different kinds of cheeses, as well as with any number of other toppings. Popular toppings include pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions, and ground beef, but some people enjoy topping their pizzas with less common foods, such as pineapple or very hot peppers. Some people like artichoke hearts or cucumber slices on top of their pizzas. If pizza for dinner doesn't appeal to you, you might like to try a dessert pizza. Dessert pizzas often combine fruit and chocolate on a cream cheese base.
