At San Jose State University's Flying Wings & Pizza, all the pizzas are named for airlines such as Southwest Delta, etc. This recipe is for the popular Air Canada pizza, which Jennifer Goodale, assistant director, says is by far the location's best sellar.
"Our signature pizza sauce has a nice kick to it," Goodale says. "The recipe includes red pepper flakes, garlic, oregano and black pepper and we spread it out to the edge to make our unique sauce- filled crust. Plus, it’s an all meat pizza [she says about why the pizza is popular], what’s not to love?"
