Consider adding a drizzle of balsamic glaze after baking for a touch of acidity and sweetness.

    I am not a fan of gorgonzola cheese, and I replaced it with feta cheese. This pizza tasted great, and it has become one of my family's favorite dishes.

    I used red onions instead of Vidalia, and it was still fantastic.
