When it comes to pizza and unusual toppings, your first thought is probably “oh no, don’t talk about pineapple on pizza!” Well guess what – there are far more bizarre things to consider as the finishing ingredient and we are about to lay them down right here. So the next time you are feeling adventurous when making a flat earth bread wheel covered in cheese and tomato sauce, make sure to give a few of these options a try.
List of Unusual Pizza Toppings
- Figs and Prosciutto – This combo is sweet and salty but even having to say that you put some figs on your pizza might scare away the dinner guests.
- Shrimp and Grits – This southern variation on pizza with fresh shrimp and grits gives you flavors of fresh seafood and creamy, cheesiness – Nawlins style.
- Mac and Cheese – Who says mac and cheese can’t go on a pizza? What is normally a side dish just got an upgrade to first class and gets you a unique combination of two comfort foods to feed your face.
- BBQ Chicken – A classic barbecue flavor was gonna show up eventually, so here it is on a pizza. Let’s up the ante and make it BBQ chicken to ensure that smoky, tangy flavor covers every inch of the pie surface.
- Peanut Butter and Jelly – it’s peanut butter and jelly time – and time to slather it on top of the pizza! This is going to taste sweet and nutty and you won’t even have to cut off the crust.
- Kimchi – Kimchi is a popular Korean dish made of fermented vegetables. So it makes perfect sense that this is going on the next pizza you order from your nearby Korean pizza parlor. But for real, kimchi adds a tangy and spicy flavor you won’t want to miss.
- Banana Curry – What could be better than banana flavor? How about Banana Curry! We are talking a jazz fusion of Indian and Caribbean flavors – this banana curry pizza is topped with spicy curry sauce, sliced bananas, and cheese and is so good that – yes, you guessed it – you will go bananas.
- Reuben – Inspired by the classic deli sandwich, Reuben pizza topping is all about the corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing. Not a guy, just a deli classic – on pizza.
- S’mores – Let’s switch gears and get into dessert mode for a second. This topping is a sweet and decadent pizza dessert, and in case you didn’t know – is simply graham cracker crust, chocolate, marshmallows, and a drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce. Ask your server for more napkins.
- Caviar – Nobody expects caviar which is why it is such a sneaky way to round out our list. For the ultimate in luxury atop your pizza, try some high-quality caviar for a uniquely salty, ocean flavor and texture experience. Make sure your friends are picking up the tab too.
