October is National Pizza Month, so let’s deep dish. Whether classic Italian, Chicago- or New York-style, pizza brings pizzazz to parties, game nights, and those hungry times when you just can’t bear to turn on the oven. From pepperoni to pineapple, its toppings are limited only by its maker’s imagination; no adornment is too pie-in-the-sky. Once you find your favorite, it’s hard to stop at one slice (could this be the Domino’s effect?). No matter, as long as you’ve got the dough. Give pizza a place in your fall lineup with a recipe from these food blogs:
