Before you go all willy-nilly-mad-scientist on your pizza, you might reconsider the following:

o Don't overtop your pizza

Imagine, if you will, what the bottom of your oven will look like caked with pizza toppings. Or worse, how your pants or shirt will look stained with pizza sauce. Despite my personal beliefs, pizza stained clothes never impress or so I am told. So be sure to use an thorough whole of toppings. And that goes for calzones too, which tend to leak if overstuffed.

o Don't mix flavors that taste bad together

Braunsweiger and peanut butter or how about sweet and sour chicken and refried beans? Unless you are under strike by mid-pregnancy flavor cravings,it's best to stick with the flavor pairings that you already know and love.

o Avoid wet soggy leftovers if possible

While this may seem like a no brainer, cold items can fool you. Even a mildly moist item may leak fluid when heated.

o Experimenting with pizza toppings is all the time fun

It is all the time fun to experiment with pizza toppings to generate new pizza recipes. Try changing your cheese combinations; who is up for an asiago/fontina blend over beef and broccoli leftovers? Maybe add a slight cheddar, brie, or chabichou du poitou to your mozzarella topping to spice things up a bit.

Using leftovers on pizza can be a fun, fast, easy way to enjoy the former meal a second time, not to mention that it will free up room in the fridge. Who knows when you will generate the ultimate pizza recipe that will transform pizza forever. Or most likely, you will just have a dreadful pizza evening meal and a astonishing pizza recipe.
