More About This Recipe

Ah, yes, the classic debate. Does pineapple really belong on pizza? We’ll let you be the judge after trying this delicious Hawaiian pizza recipe. But, because you’re making it at home, we won’t judge you if you substitute mushrooms or chopped bell peppers for the pineapple. According to Time, the Hawaiian pizza was invented in 1962 by a man named Sam Panopoulos, a native of Greece who ran a pizza place in Canada. Panopoulos told BBC that the pizza had begun as an experiment, but that he and his brothers enjoyed the contrast between the pineapple’s sweetness and the savory flavor of the ham.
