Recipe Roundup: 8 Comfort Food Pizzas to Cozy Up with in the New Year

We all know that pizza soothes the soul. That's just a given. However, there are a few recipes I've made over the years that are especially cozy and luscious (and sometimes even a little boozy). These comfort food pizzas are basically hugs by the slice, and I can't think of a better time than the New Year to (re)share them with you.

Note: Because good nourishment and comfort go hand in hand, most of the recipes listed below include nutrient-rich veggies and herbs, as well as gooey melted cheese and, of course, a pillowy bed of carbs. In other words, these pizzas will love you as much as you'll love them. You're very welcome!
