With its extra sausage and cheese, the Chicago Classic pizza is an understandable favorite. For more specialized pizza possibilities, try the Farmer's Market that's flavored with sun-dried and plum tomatoes and caramelized spinach or the Spinoccoli, a veggie-lovers treat topped with fresh spinach and broccoli.
There's always the do-it-yourself pizza option. Choose the "Create Your Own" option on Unos.com to make your own deep-dish order. You'll start with cheese and tomato and have the option to add three toppings.

Pasta dishes, soups and salads, and stand-alone entree salads are just as tempting and tasty.
