I've made this pizza several times and it always comes out perfectly. I made it for a romantic dinner with my boyfriend, and he hasn't stopped asking for it since. I've used whole wheat pre-made dough from trader joes and that has worked well too. For a healthier version, use half the cheese. You will love this pizza!
wonderful!

Squash on pizza sounded a bit weird to me, but i tried this anyways. super easy to make and the flavors were perfect together! if you dont like gorgonzola you probably wont like this recipe, but i am in love with it! A nice change up for traditional pizza. Next time i'm going to make it with whole wheat crust, but other than that it's perfect.
Amazing Recipe

Tonight was my first time trying arugula and I loved this pizza. A few variations I did: The Dough: Added a layer of chopped up fresh basil (or dry) on the dough before adding the mozzarella. Added mozzarella, gorgonzola, sprinkled red pepper flakes and drizzled with a little EVOO The Toppings: I did not peel the acorn squash skin. I thought it was tender enough to eat. Used baby arugula only because that's what the store had. Drizzled with a little EVOO on top of the arugula. Molto bene!
Amazing!

My grocery store didn't have acorn squash so I used butternut - otherwise I followed the recipe to a "T" & it was AMAZING! My picky 10 year old daughter even loved it!
Didn't Really Care for This

I love most all of Giada's recipes, but this one just wasn't good for us. We did however, like the squash.
Perfect Party Food!

WOW! I served this at a Silpada home party and it was a HUGE HIT with the women! They loved the sweet flavor of the squash with the gorganzola and the spicy arugala. It was the perfect finger food with a twist to serve in the afternoon. My kids and husband actually loved it too. I am going to serve it again in a couple of weeks at BUNKO. YUMMY! PS I do suggest slicing the acorn squash smaller 1/4 " worked for me.
A new household staple

This recipe is absolutely amazing. The instructions are easy to follow and cook the pizza to perfection. The flavors in this dish are distinct and to die for. The bite of the gorgonzola, as well as the spicy sweetness of the squash, and the pepperiness of the arugula create the perfect blend of flavors. I am extremely happy with this recipe and now we always keep what we need to make it on hand. Even my boyfriend, who has a simple appetite, loves this dish!
Different...

The gorganzola was overpowering. I ate a 1/2 a piece and threw the rest away.
Not so much

We really weren't crazy about this pizza, but people you have to make that squash!! We couldn't stop eating it (off the pizza). I created a side dish which we now love using the squash recipe which is arranged on top of the arugula and topped with the gorgonzola. Not sure why it didn't work for us as pizza, but these flavors are wonderful.
Amazing!!!

One of the best Giada dishes I've ever made! Anyone can do this!!! Super easy! To make it healthier, use sugar free syrup and use whole wheat crust. Delish!
Delicious

I made this last night, and it was so easy, colorful and yummy. I made it with whole wheat pizza dough and reduced-fat mozzarella and it still had a lot of taste.
Delicious, minus the squash

My friend and I really enjoyed this pizza, once we took the squash off. I like squash by itself, but the texture and flavor on the pizza did not work for me. Other than that, I loved the gorgonzola and arugula.
Best Fall pizza

I've made probably 100 recipes from food network and this is the best recipe I've found. The flavors are tremendous and the recipe is actually very simple. If you like arugula you will LOVE this recipe. I can't say enough good things about this.
Wonderful & EASY

This was so flavorful and simple. Great combinations of tastes. Save some time by buying pre-cut butternut squash and roasting. No need to cut and peel that way!
Light, colorful, and DELICIOUS!

Wow...this pizza is AMAZING! My boyfriend and I decided to make all 3 dishes featured on this episode. Neither of us had ever tried acorn squash and we thought the combination with arugula would be interesting. The flavors of the 2 cheeses with the acorn squash having a sweet touch of maple syrup was out of this world! My boyfriend's family owns a pizzeria and he tends to be picky with the pizza he eats. But this was definitely a winner. We can't wait for his family to try it out!
Absolutely delicious!

I'm a pizza traditionalist -- tomato sauce, no fancy toppings, everything in moderation. But when I saw this made today on television, I decided to give it a try. I was amazed; it is great! I can't think of anything I'd add; the gorgonzola is what really makes it, and all of the flavors just blend together so well. I used micro-arugula, which I'd recommend if you can find it -- much easier to eat when on a pizza. I'm definitely making this again. Even my chef roommate was surprised and said it was a "winner!"
