    9 Dog Breeds That Look Like Puppies Even When They're Fully Grown

    9 Dog Breeds That Look Like Puppies Even When They're Fully Grown

    Puppies are irresistible. We fall in love with their big eyes, little button noses, fluffy tails, and clumsy paws. And yet, like any pet, puppies grow up and turn into dogs. Some breeds, like the Old English Sheepdog or Great Dane, will grow to become larger in size than most people. But not all dogs are destined to become giants. There are some breeds that stay small in size even when they're fully grown. You may want a forever puppy if you are used to smaller animals. Maybe you have a small apartment or just want a canine companion that you can easily carry along with you anywhere you go. Small dogs are also great for families with young children or those of senior age who are best matched with a breed they can physically handle. Fortunately, some specialty dog breeds are mixed to look like puppies throughout their entire lives—and they are sure to melt your heart the second you lay your eyes on them.

Pizza is surely one of the most universally loved foods. Whether you buy dough at a restaurant or the grocery store or make it at home from scratch, it's a delicious base that needs nothing more than a quality sauce, cheese, and fresh herbs to shine. And if you do like toppings, it's time to put these veggie pizza recipes on your radar. Some of the meat-free pies in our collection highlight classic toppings while others feature creative combinations that take inspiration from popular salads, regional delights, and so much more. Whether you're a vegetarian or a meat-lover, there's a veggie pizza recipe here that's sure to tempt you. 

Some of our vegetarian pizza recipes are baked and some are grilled, some cooked in a sheet pan, others in a cast-iron skillet, and lots are formed into individual rounds or shareable spheres. If you're making dough from scratch, be sure to allow time for it to rise. And know that once your dough is ready, these veggie pizza recipes come together fast and are sure to delight anyone you share them with.

Creamy Grilled-Corn Pizza

Easy enough for a weeknight dinner, these individual grilled pizzas start with store-bought naan or another type of pre-baked flatbread. The toppings are also not traditional pizza stuff, they're inspired by Mexican street corn. A combination of sour cream, mayonnaise, lime, and garlic lends tangy creaminess, while charred corn kernels provide juicy sweetness, and we add add in mozzarella for creamy heft.

Put an egg on it they say, so we did! But first the dough is spread with creamy ricotta cheese and sprinkled with Parmesan. Zucchini and a generous amount of squash blossoms are scattered on top, giving the pie a welcome sweetness. The egg is added for the last five minutes of baking and its yolk dresses this veggie pizza.

In this veggie pizza recipe, the dough is grilled until it's slightly charred and then finished off with your choice of toppings such as the classic tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and basil combo shown here. It's a no-fuss, five-ingredient pizza that can stand alone, but we love it paired with a side salad for dinner.

Store-bought dough is a smart shortcut if you're making pizza for a weeknight dinner. We use it for this pie that's topped with fresh plum tomatoes in place of sauce and piles avocado, fresh spinach, and goat cheese high on top of the grilled crust.

Pan-bagnat, a sandwich popular in southern France, inspired this pizza recipe that features chopped anchovies, roasted peppers, capers, and parsley on top of homemade dough (though of course you could sub store-bought pizza dough). This recipe is light on the tomato sauce to really let the other ingredients shine through.

Store-bought flatbreads replace pizza dough in this veggie pizza recipe. Once charred on the grill, the flatbreads are layered with mozzarella cheese and a selection of grilled produce—try mushrooms, zucchini, red onion, and kale. Then top with a sprinkling of blue cheese, more mozzarella, and drizzle with a mustard vinaigrette—no tomato sauce here!
