8 Untraditional Pizza Recipes Because Even the Perfect Margherita Can Get Boring

Pizza is just the best. Much like a best friend or a loyal dog, it's fun to hang out with, there when you need it, and it smells good. But I'm going to be brave and say what I know a lot of us are thinking: how many times can we eat bread, cheese. and sauce without getting a little bored?

I don't mean to insult pizza. I would never do that. I'm just suggesting that maybe we should branch out a bit. There are other toppings we can try besides pepperoni, mushrooms, and peppers. I searched long and hard for the untraditional pizza recipes you need to try immediately, and here are my (and soon to be your) eight favorites.
