Stray from traditional tomato and your pizza instantly becomes gourmet. Go green with pesto. Keep color out with an all-white pie. Or, you could spice things up with my favorite fiery Moroccan red pepper sauce. With loads of veggies, fresh mozzarella cheese and cool mint leaves to complement the heat, this pizza is about as outside-the-delivery-box as you can get.
