what toppings MUST you have on your Pizza?
for me a Pizza has to have at least peperoni and green peppers.. they have so much flavour compared to most other toppings.
just shared a half n half pizza with my flat mate and he chose chicken, ham, pinapple and sweetcorn for his half... absolutely as bland as **** :(
what core toppings do you base your pizza around?
 
Peperoni can dominate a pizza too much. Definitely not a staple for me. Only staples are a good tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella. Love a bit of rocket too.
 
sweetcorn I like. I'm not an enormous pizza fan so I always struggle with what to choose but I am more likely to go for your flatmate's half (not the pineapple though!)

I love pizzas with simple things on - parma ham, sundried toms, big circles of mozzarella and a bit of rocket on afterwards is fab.

Also, whenever I've been in France, I've seemed to be able to get pizzas with salmon and creme fraiche on. The pizzeria in Carcassonne which is the town I love does this in a calzone, it's amazing :)
 
we were to share our pizza so we both got 2 different halfs and were to split them 50/50, but as my half had.. Onions, mushrooms, green peppers, ham, pepperoni, pork & beef and was bloomin fantastic
i told my flat mate that he will have to have the Lions share of his half as its ****e :p

The two absolute must-haves for me are a nice garlicky tomato sauce and mozzarella. On top of that I really really like pepperoni and chilli; chicken, chilli, red peppers and pepperoni; anchovies, red pepper and a raw egg cracked over it before baking; or just as it is.
 
Spinach
ham
and another meat depending on what I feel like, most often chicken
If i'm feeling rich ill get sweetcorn too

Stuffed crust with dominos garlic and herb sauce.

I'm now drooling lol.

This.

Currently I like to do one of these three:

- Green pesto chicken, peppadew peppers, red onion a bit of extra pesto

- Black pepper rolled salami, peppadew peppers, red onion and mushrooms

- Tuna, anchovies, roasted peppers

All go lovely with some fresh basil torn on top.

Fiorentina pizza!!!!!! Awesome.
 
I love mushrooms (hell I think you all know that now lol), sweetcorn, pineapple, ham, bacon the list goes on. It would be easier for me to list the things it must not have :D ie. onions I hate them on pizza.
 
I'm a real fan of ham and pineapple, usually my go to toppings.

But I had a kebab pizza when I was in Belgium with work and it was absolutely fantastic, really nice meat and awesome cheese.
 
I dont really have any "must have" toppings, other than maybe chicken or ham. I tend to switch up my pizza toppings a lot though, so theres no 1 topping I use every single time.

Favourite combos include:

Chicken, ham and sweetcorn
Chicken, ham and smoked sauage
Spicy chicken, spicy mince and jalepenos
Ham and pineapple
