I made some pizzas with sweet caramelized onions sitting above a spicy tomato sauce, and then topped with sliced mushrooms, mozzarella, chopped bell peppers, some olives, basil and voila! My husband's had added handfuls of Canadian bacon slivers on top that crisped along the edges. He made plenty of grunting noises while chowing down!
