This is an excellent idea. I chose to use the small "Pizza" breads you can easily purchase, then took a trip by the salad bar. I was able to mix and match vegetable preferences per person. Each person then had their own "Vegetable Pizza". Vegetables ran the salad bar spectrum: broccoli, cauliflour, peppers (sweet and hot), spinach, peas, tomatoes, zucchini, yellow neck squash, onions and mushrooms. Buy using the salad bar for the fixings, I didn't have to buy more than what we would use to make the "variety" of pizzas. I also used an finely shredded "Italian Cheese Blend." Everyone raved and ask when we could have them again.
