Today let me introduce you to my favorite pizza of all time. This Colombian pizza is one of those things I love to eat whenever I visit Colombia. I must confess, I did not make my own pizza dough, I just used store bought. If you are feeling brave, feel free to make your own…I am not there yet ;-).
I have no words to describe just how good this pizza is. It is packed with goodness! You’ll have to try it so that you can understand what I am talking about for yourself. One of the reasons I love this blog so much is because it pushes me to make recipes at home of foods that I love and miss so much from my country.

Erica, this looks so yummy!! I have a question about the Colombian Chorizo, is it similar to Spanish Chorizo? Looks so good and I would love to try it!

looks fantastic...I love chorizo though I don't think I've had the columbian version before...
I grew up with rectangular pizza so this is a nostalgia inducing post for me...and in Italy most of it is served that way too.
