Salad on pizza sounds odd, but try it once, and you'll definitely put freshly tossed greens on top of your cheese pie again. When making this healthy pizza recipe, be sure to wait until it's almost done cooking to make the radicchio and basil salad, otherwise it'll wilt a bit too much.

Pineapple isn't the only fruit you can drop on pizza. This healthy pizza recipe uses sweet figs to balance the umami flavor of the mushrooms, and, for a boost of whole grains, calls for whole wheat pizza dough.
