Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Looking for Greek ingredients, flavours, spices?),it will help you,my kids.
I'm wanting to make a "Greek" pizza. I know it sounds weid, but I'd like to know what goes into some typical Greek foods. What spices, ingredients, specific flavours do they use? Thanks
Answer:
Garlic is the standard. To use in a pizza I would roast it first, take the bulb, place it in a square of alu foil, drip a teaspoon of olive oil and wrap closed. Roast in a slow oven(300F) for a hour or until soft. Mix in your tomato sauce. Use sundried tomatoes, green/black olives, anchovies, feta, or a softer goats cheese that will melt on your pizza. Red onions, sliced thinly and sauteed to prevent burning in the oven. A little basil, thyme, oregano, mint. You could cheat and mix your cheese with mozzarella to soften the flavour if it is too strong for you. Peppers are good, but I prefer red, yellow and orange. When sauteed they have a sweetness which will offset the goats cheese. Lamb, ground, flavoured and browned could be sprinkled on the pizza instead of sausage. Or you could cheat one more time and find some North African sausage Merguez which is made with lamb and very spicy and flavored with garlic and mint. Fabulous alternative to pepperoni!! Have fun and good luck!!!
There is no Greek pizza per se. Not in the way other people think of pizza anyway.
Now to have a pizza with Greek flavor, put on it slices of tomatoes, crumble feta (there is only one type of feta and it is Greek all the rest is crap) cheese sprincle oregano and olive oil.
This is your basic pizza, (called "dakos" in Crete but is on a crispy rye bread not pizza dough.)
But you can keep going.... Add olives, garlic and rosemary.
My Greek pizza rocks. I start with plain tomato sauce (light application). Add onions and red peppers that I have roasted on my barbque. Sprinkle with feta cheese. Add a bit of oregano and bake as you would for any pizza. You can add olives if you like........Yummy.
Well, we tend to use alot of oregano, garlic, and rosemary.
For a Greek Pizza, I would use feta cheese(use the Bulgarian.. not the Greek.. the greek feta is very very tart, bulgarian is sweeter), kalamata olives, tomatoes, and a little garlic.
Hope this helps and Yasou!!

GREEK PIZZA
1/2 lb. Phyllo dough (1/2 pkg.)
Olive oil
10 oz. fresh spinach (cleaned and trimmed)
1 lg. onion
3 cloves garlic, mashed
1 med. tomato, sliced
1/2 tsp. dried basil

In large skillet, heat a little olive oil, stir in garlic and onions. W hen onions are soft, add spinach and herbs. As spinach cooks, add bread crumbs to absorb extra moisture. Once spinach is limp, set aside. (Grind black pepper to taste.)
Spoon filling onto crust leaving 1/2 inch from all 4 edges. Place mushroom and olives on top if desired. Sprinkle half the Mozzarella and all of the Feta cheese over filling. Arrange sliced tomatoes over cheese, then sprinkle remaining Mozzarella over tomatoes. Bake 35-40 minutes until bubbly.
