California-style pizza, a thin-crust pizza noted for its fresh, nontraditional toppings, such as chicken, peanut sauce, artichoke hearts, and goat cheese rather than the standard pepperoni and mozzarella.
Ingredients for Toppings (what I used):
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce.
- 2 cups 8-10 oz shredded Mozzarella cheese.
- 6 slices of deli ham, chopped or cut into strips.
- 1 medium tomato, sliced.
- 1 small red onion, finely sliced.
- 6-7 mushrooms, sliced.
- 1/4 cup Black olives, sliced.
California-style pizza embraces a crust that pays homage to the classic hand-tossed pizza. The dough is rolled out thinly, offering a delicate balance of crispiness and a hint of chewiness.

California-style pizza (also known as California pizza) is a style of pizza that combines New York and Italian thin crust with toppings from the California cuisine cooking style. Its invention is generally attributed to chef Ed LaDou, and Chez Panisse, in Berkeley, California.
