Who doesn’t love pizza? So many toppings, so many varieties—it just never gets old. Whether you want a classic slice covered with chunky tomato sauce and piled high with fresh veggies or you’re into the mock-meat lover’s style, you’re sure to find a cruelty-free combo that pleases your palate.

I’m always up for a challenge and love to experiment in the kitchen to come up with new and creative dishes. Although it’s a bit unusual, this barbecue “chicken” pizza has turned out to be a weekend staple in my home.

These toppings create a uniquely sweet and zesty flavor that will have you reaching for seconds. Choose your favorite style of crust—make your own dough, create mini-pizzas using soft tortilla shells, or go with a store-bought brand—and then get cooking!
