69 Inventive Pizza Dishes

National Pizza Day is the perfect time to try out some highly creative and slightly unusual pizza pie recipes. While traditional pepperoni pizza is often a party favorite, there are many other ways to enjoy this dish.

Casual eateries and food brands are now offering innovative crust options such as pretzel-styled and bacon-infused.
