Pretty much anything else in the fridge is fair game, though.

I don't know if I can get into the idea of some things on a pizza, say like, avocado...

This is one of those mexican pizzas though, so it might work better than I think.

My fave pizza is the tandoori chicken and mango topped pizza from California Pizza Kitchen. Looks something like this..

True dat! I don't think I've ever had a bad meal there. Although, their pizzas far outshine their pasta offerings.
 
MIH, we have avocado in the house so infrequently that it would never end up on a pizza, though I have been known to top pizzas with crushed pinapple, onions and ham. Generally, we have fresh green peppers and onions for toppings with hot sausage or hamburg, though if there's cooked bacon or BBQ'd pork spare ribs in the fridge, they just might sneak into the mix. If you haven't tried sauerkraut, onion, and hot sausage, you should give it a shot. Lots of minced garlic is OK with that mix, too, if you don't have any imminent social engagements. My wife likes LOTS of garlic.

Can you grow an avocado tree where you are? My neighbor has a huge avocado tree and a bunch of the fruits are hanging over the fence on my side. I grab one every once in a while. The only problem is that they never taste as good as supermarket avvies. They tend to be smaller and harder.
 
I don't think avocados they would grow up here. Our primary crops are icicles, lumbago, and chilblains. Occasionally, we see some avocations developing during the long winters, but the fruits of those labors often end up on the landfill or in "garage" sales. (They always forget the "b"!)
 
BTW, there is no conceivable recipe, in which avocado might be combined with moose tenderloin, smoked Atlantic salmon, fiddleheads, venison, or sauteed brook trout, so there's really no need for that particular alligator variant up here anyway. Oh, sure, there's the odd party-attendee that thinks everybody ought to swoon over her whack-a-mole dip, but they usually succumb to the coffee-brandy/milk drinks early in the party and wake up back home with lots of green paste in a bowl.

Tip: The old Evinrude LightTwin 3's are killer outboards that will idle/troll all day without fouling a plug, and they are easy to handle and lug to a pond. Easy on fuel, and easy to rebuild. (Make a Maine bride out of you yet, MIH!)

Hold the crap on my slice, please.

How much crap will your slice hold? :biggrin:

I believe that is described in Domino's Law. There is a relationship between the thin-ness of a semi-triangular pizza crust and the amount of crap it will hold without sagging when leveled between thumb and forefingers.

Thanks - that's a great suggestion for my dowry. I understand that model is pretty hard to come by, though. I guess if I could get my hands on one, that would make me quite a catch. :)

Very tough to find in decent condition. That and a lightweight aluminum boat (maybe a Grumman sport canoe) would vault you to the top of the most-marriageable list, for sure. :smile:
