The Cheeses
For best results, use mainly milder cheeses such as Monterey Jack, Fontina, and, most common, Mozzarella. Use small amounts of the more pungent cheeses, like Bleu, Goat, and Parmesan in conjunction with the milder ones. Cream cheese and mascarpone are excellent for fruit pizza.
Mild, creamy cheeses:
- Colby, Edam, Fontina, Gouda, Monterey Jack, Mozzarella, Muenster, Scamorze, and possibly Swiss
More pungent cheeses, use small amounts of these:
- Bel Paese, Blue Cheese, Brie, Camembert, Cheddar, Goat Cheese, Limburger, Parmesan, Port du Salut, Provolone, Romano, and Roquefort
Meat, Poultry and Seafood
Meats and seafood are generally cooked before being arranged on a pizza. How they are cooked changes their flavor entirely, and changes the direction of your pizza toppings selections.
Chicken, for instance, can be roasted, grilled, barbecued and marinated, or coated with any pizza sauce before going into the oven. Each process gives the chicken a distinctive flavor and texture, and makes for fun experimentation.
- Anchovies, Bacon, Beef, Calamari, Canadian Bacon, Caviar, Chicken, Clams, Duck, Ham, Lamb, Salami, Pork, Sausage, Scallops, Shrimp, Smoked Salmon, Turkey

Vegetables and More
Most vegetables do not need to be pre-cooked unless they cook more slowly than the other pizza toppings, or if they are very juicy.
But, as with meats and seafood, you may want to do it anyway, to create a different flavor. For instance, the differences in raw onions, grilled onions, and caramelized onions are vast. The same is true of raw garlic and roasted garlic, fried eggplant and grilled eggplant.
