Trying to incorporate more vegetables into your meals? Add them to pizza! This white pizza is loaded with squash, tomatoes, and fresh basil and topped with a mix of mozzarella and creamy garlic and herb cheese. I like making my own dough, but store-bought will work just fine, too. And if you don’t have a grill, make the pizza in your oven. Read my directions here.

Barbecue Chicken Pizza
I make homemade pizza almost every Friday night, so when I want something other than basic tomato sauce and cheese, I default to this barbecue chicken pizza. Topped with homemade barbecue sauce, caramelized onions, shredded chicken, fresh herbs, and lots of cheese, it’s full of flavor and nothing like your basic pizza. If you’ve never made your own pizza dough, this recipe (Quick and Easy Pizza Crust) is perfect for newbies — and those short on time. Although it’s a yeast dough, it requires very little rise time. For years, I’ve made pizza dough that requires two-plus hours to rise, so I was skeptical of this recipe, but it is just as good!
